O’Connor: The Freak

Holly Upchurch May 25, 2017 Book Review / Flannery

“Whenever I’m asked why Southern writers particularly have a penchant for writing about freaks, I say it is because we are still able to recognize one.”

O’Connor: The Sinner and The Saint

Holly Upchurch May 20, 2017 Book Review / Flannery

This ability for introspection gives us hope for the possibility of change. This is the goal to which all sinners aspire.

“The fact is, people don’t know what they are expected to do with a novel, believing, as so many do, that art must be utilitarian, that it must do something, rather than be something. Their eyes have not been opened to what fiction is, and they are like the blind men who went to visit the elephant – each feels a different part and comes away with a different impression”
