About
The publication of this extraordinary volume firmly established Flannery O'Connor's monumental contribution to American fiction. There are thirty-one stories here in all, including twelve that do not appear in the only two story collections O'Connor put together in her short lifetime-Everything That Rises Must Converge and A Good Man Is Hard to Find.

Reviews
"What we lost when she died is bitter. What we have is astonishing: the stories burn brighter than ever, and strike deeper."
Walter Clemons, Newsweek
"O'Connor's plainspoken, blunt, comic-cartoonish, and flagrantly melodramatic short stories . . . were not refined New Yorker stories of the era in which nothing happens except inside characters' minds, but stories in which something happens of irreversible magnitude, often death by violent means."
Joyce Carol Oates, New York Review of Books
