Synopsis
Mary Flannery O'Connor was an American novelist, short-story writer and essayist. Her novel, The Complete Stories of Flannery O’Connor , won the National Book Award in 1972. This collection of thirty-one short stories is a unique, tangible expression of O’Connor’s projected ideas of the southern United States in the 1950’s and 1960’s. Included in this collection are twelve stories that are only included in this collection and not in her two other compilations, Everything That Rises Must Converge and, A Good Man Is Hard To Find. The novel includes pieces that range from the darkly violent to the facetiously hysterical. These multi-layered fascinating stories are told with a convincing, provocative depth.
