Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia | 0.01 sec. |
O'Connor, (Mary) Flannery (1925-1964)US novelist and short-story writer. Her works have a great sense of evil and sin, and often explore the religious sensibility of the Deep South, as in her novels Wise Blood (1952) and The Violent Bear It Away (1960). Her work exemplifies the post-war revival of the gothic novel in southern US fiction. Her collections of short stories include A Good Man Is Hard to Find (1955), and Everything That Rises Must Converge (1965). Other works are a collection of her letters, The Habit of Being (1979), and Flannery O'Connor: Collected Works (1988). How to thank TFD for its existence?

Montgomery has explored this theme before most thoroughly in his out-of-print trilogy, a neglected classic work of our time: Why Flannery O'Connor Stayed Home (1981), Why Poe Drank Liquor (1983), and Why Hawthorne was Melancholy (1984). And Now I See and The Strangest Way, he draws on writers like Dante, Flannery O'Connor, and Evelyn Waugh to illustrate the great themes of Christianity. sometimes sounds eerily like Flannery O'Connor in Pound's English version--although utterly without O'Connor's gonzo Catholic vision of redemption. |
