Synopsis
Winner of the National Book Award The publication of this extraordinary volume firmly established Flannery O'Connor's monumental contribution to American fiction. There are thirty-one stories here in all, including twelve that do not appear in the only two story collections O'Connor put together in her short lifetime-- Everything That Rises Must Converge and A Good Man Is Hard to Find . O'Connor published her first story, The Geranium, in 1946, while she was working on her master's degree at the University of Iowa. Arranged chronologically, this collection shows that her last story, Judgement Day--sent to her publisher shortly before her death--is a brilliantly rewritten and transfigured version of The Geranium. Taken together, these stories reveal a lively, penetrating talent that has given us some of the most powerful and disturbing fiction of the twentieth century. Also included is an introduction by O'Connor's longtime editor and friend, Robert Giroux., Winner of the National Book Award The publication of this extraordinary volume firmly established Flannery O'Connor's monumental contribution to American fiction.

- b***k (199)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThis isn’t an easy book to find! I recommend this series to people as an easy quick read for adolescents. It’s fun for adults, too! I read the series as a break from serious study in college many moons ago. My boyfriend at the time was trying to ease me into fantasy as an escape from the literary canon. It worked! It’s a great series for adolescents who don’t think reading is fun. It’s irreverent and engaging with quick rewards for diving in.
