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.
Softcover. 555 pages.
