Overview

Hailed by critics as one of the more con-troversial of contemporary American authors, Flannery O'Connor has been de-scribed as the most extreme Christian dualist since Dostoevsky. In this first full-length study of O'Connor's work, Brown-ing explores the implications of O'Con-nor's situation as a Roman Catholic in the South in the 1950s. From this point of departure Browning offers a detailed analysis of Wise Blood, A Good Man Is Hard to Find, The Vio-lent Bear It Away, and Everything That Rises Must Converge. Touching upon writings about intensely religious acts and dilemmas, this look at a Roman Catholic Southern writer will be of special interest to students of philosophy and religion.
