Meet the author

Flannery O'Connor is one of the most important American short story writers of the 20th century, celebrated for her masterful command of the Southern Gothic style. A devout Catholic living in Georgia, her stories explore complex questions of morality, faith, and redemption through the lives of flawed, often startling, characters. Diagnosed with lupus at a young age, O'Connor’s profound understanding of human suffering and the search for grace permeates her unflinching, darkly comic, and deeply insightful literary work.
