"Everywhere I go, I'm asked if I think the
universities stifle writers. My opinion is that
they don't stifle enough of them. There's many a best seller that could
have been
prevented by a good teacher."
Flannery O'Connor (1925-1964)
American
writer, particularly acclaimed for her stories which combined comic
with tragic and brutal. Along with authors like
Carson McCullers
and Eudora Welty, Flannery O'Connor belonged to the Southern Gothic
tradition that focused on the decaying South and its damned people.
O'Connor's body of work was small, consisting of only thirty-one
stories, two novels, and some speeches and letters.

Essays: Criticism of O'Connor's work on the Internet. Many
of these are "scholarly," but there are several non-academic articles
here as well, so be careful if you use them for a paper.
Offline Essays: A bibliography of print resources. Most of
these are in journals, and as far as I know they are academic, not
popular articles.
Books : Works by and about O'Connor available online or at
your local bookstore.
