Widely acclaimed as one of the finest short story writers and known for her acerbic wit, complex themes, and illuminating portrayal of the American South, Flannery O'Connor is a favorite among students, scholars, and general readers. Her stories ""A Good Man Is Hard to Find"" and ""Everything That Rises Must Converge"" confirm her prodigious talent and are prominently featured in high school and university literature courses today. This new collection of critical essays presents a chronology of O'Connor's life, a bibliography of her works, an index, and an introductory essay by literary critic Harold Bloom.
