Flannery O’Connor is considered one of America’s greatest fiction writers and her writing often reflects her Catholic faith, and frequently examined questions of morality and ethics.
When she died in August of 1964, The New York Times called her “one of the nation’s most promising writers.”

O’Connor is now as canonical as Faulkner and Welty. More than a great writer, she’s a cultural figure: a funny lady in a straw hat, puttering among peacocks, on crutches she likened to “flying buttresses.”
