"[This] new and outstanding selection from her canon is essential O'Connor reading." --The Los Angeles Times Book Review

"An irriesistible inviation into her carefully crafted prose pieces."--Horizons
Flannery O’Connor (1925-1964) is widely regarded as one of the great American writers of the twentieth century. Only in 1979, however, with the publication of her collected letters, could the public fully see the depth of her personal faith and her wisdom as a spiritual guide. Drawing from all her work this anthology highlights as never before O’Connor’s distinctive voice as a spiritual writer, covering such topics as Christian Realism, the Church, the relation between faith and art, sin and grace, and the role of suffering in the life of a Christian.
