HUDSON FUNERAL HOME Service Since 1919 1800 Angier Ave. 596-8269 Member NFDA NEW YORK (AP) Novelist Coleman Dowell, acclaimed in literary circles but unable to achieve commercial success, leaped 15 floors to his death from his apartment Saturday, police said. Dowell, 60, had been depressed for two years, partly over the slow sales of his five novels, said Bradford Morrow, his friend and editor.
Dowell left a note saying "he just couldn't take it anymore," Morrow said. Dowell's books included White on Black on White and Island People, which playwright Tennessee Williams said "attains a level of prose writing which is hardly distinguishable from a long, marvelously sustained narrative poem." Police said Dowell jumped from the window of his Fifth Avenue apartment on the Upper East Side at about 12:55 a.m. In a 1983 review, the New York Times called White on Black on White, Dowell's last published novel, "a bold examination of black pain and anger and white guilt that crackles with insights." "He's a novelist who was just genuinely ahead of his time- a novelist's novelist," said Morrow, editor of Conjunctions, a literary journal that has published. Dowell's work. "He was admired by anybody in the know." In his works, Dowell examined sexual obsession, hom*osexuality and social issues, writing in a shifting narrative voice, Morrow said.
Born in Adairville, Dowell came to New York in the early 1950s and worked as a play wright and lyricist. He published his first novel, One of the Children is Crying, in 1968. In that book, he "sees the world with a childhood's raw intensity," wrote Maurice Sendak, the illustrator and writer. "His vision of the sinister horrors of family life has the sting of truth." Dowell followed with Mrs. October Was Here in 1974; Island People in 1976, Too Much Flesh and Jabez in 1977; and White on Black on White six years later.
On Tuesday, he gave Morrow his latest work, a collection of short stories called The Houses of Children, the editor said. He Dowell was at work on another novel called Eve of the Green Grass. He is survived by a brother and sister. Actor James F. Nolan Dead Of Cancer At 69 LOS ANGELES (AP) James F.
