http://www.msu.edu/~foreman6/oconnor.htm

Extractions: What is Southern Gothic Literature? Unlike Romantic Gothic literature that utilizes the supernatural, Southern Gothic literature focuses on the sublime and grotesque found in reality. Instead of removing characters to a place of contrived fantasy, southern Gothic concentrates on examining the extremes the Christian South. The grotesque is used because "With its emphasis upon distortion, melodrama, caricature, and fusion it says a great deal about the reality of man's condition" (Muller, 11). The Southern aspect of Southern Gothic would be that the grotesque is a negative that has been dictated by Christian morals because since the South is "Christ-haunted", they have deeper sense of their maker (Feeley, x). Why does Flannery O'Connor fit in the Southern Gothic genre? Gothic literature uses the supernatural and deformity of the grotesque. Southern literature focuses on people from the south and their inherent Christianity. O'Connor blended both as she wrote of those she encountered, from the nut on the street to the local preacher. With each story, she recreated a reality of southern life but made the characters freaks. The freaks are the everyday people O'Connor saw but are driven by a demonic force. Muller notes freak is a 'flat' character "to the extent that he is obsessed, that he is automaton-like, that his compulsive gestures are mechanical"(23). O'Connor found that Christian dogma is inherent in the south and used its beliefs to draw grotesque characters that would affect her readers.

Extractions: Rosa found him rolled over in the mud down by the gully. She started. The wash basket fell off her head and six white shirts-washed, pressed, and folded-flapped face-down in the mud. One of them was in reach of his hand, a rigid, immobile hand, strangely white against the soft red clay it lay in. She felt like sinking into the clay herself. It had taken her all afternoon to iron them shirts. She picked them up except the one that almost touched him. She fished that up with a stick and drop ped it into the basket. Then she looked at him again. He seemed almost to have been pressed down in the clay, his thin body and outstretched arms forming a weird white cross in relief on the red. Light-colored trousers clung to his wet body and Rosa notic ed that a thin coating of ice had begun to form around his arms and back. She was sorting the Grocery-Store-Wilkinson's wash from the Sheriff-Thomases when Abram came in. She heard three, slow, deliberate footsteps and thought it was someone else. Then the door creaked and he peered in. She knew he was drunk by the way he opene d the door. If it had weighed a hundred, he couldn't have done it more slowly. Cheap wine-allus got him. Abram closed the door behind him with infinite care and tiptoed to the bed where she had the wash laid out.

Despite her brief life and relatively modest output, her work is regarded as among the most distinguished American fiction of the mid-twentieth century. Her two collections of short stories, A Good Man Is Hard to Find (1955) and Everything That Rises Must Converge (1965), were included in (1971), which won the National Book Award. O’Connor inhabited simultaneously two radically different worlds. The world she created in her stories is populated with bratty children, malcontents, incompetents, pious frauds, bewildered intellectuals, deformed cynics, rednecks, hucksters, racists, perverts, and murderers who experience dramatically intense moments that surprise and shock readers. Her personal life, however, was largely uneventful. She humorously acknowledged its quiet nature in 1958 when she claimed that "there won’t be any biographies of me because, for only one reason, lives spent between the house and the chicken yard do not make exciting copy."

Extractions: The Collected Works Robin Darling Young The author of The Violent Bear It Away If categories are invoked, OConnor is readily identifiable as a Southern and Catholic writer. To consign authors to the categories of the regional and religious is usually to diminish them by convenience; fortunately OConnors writing defies diminution, because she wrote of the cities of God and man with a consciousness filled by something larger than merely a religious view, or a worldview, or a tradition. Her voice sounded a particular note, her eye saw and her hands crafted tales that told particular stories of the country to which she truly belongedin the words of a contemporary author, John Casey, "that historical glacier the Church." That is why it is not wholly correct to say, as the dustjacket of the otherwise excellent Flannery OConnor: The Collected Works (Library of America, 1988) does, that OConnor "in her short lifetime . . . became one of the most distinctive American writers of the twentieth century." OConnor was an American writer only in a highly qualified way. No one with a passport from the una sancta can wholeheartedly embrace the American project of liberal commercialism, or why would OConnor have made old Hazel Motes say, "Nobody with a good car needs to be justified"? The novel wherein Motes stalks (

Flannery O'Connor
flannery OConnor (192564) Commentary by Karen Bernardo. flannery yourself?Click here flannery O'Connor Collected Works
http://www.storybites.com/oconnor.htm

Extractions: Commentary by Karen Bernardo Flannery OConnor has the reputation of writing some of the quirkiest fiction in the annals of American literature. Her characters are strange, if not downright bizarre. But there was a message behind OConnors madnessand that was contained in her conviction that we are all, even those of us who seem most "normal," wanting in the sight of God. A devout Catholic, OConnor expressed her belief in humanitys need for salvation in every story. All O'Connor's stories deal with the workings of grace in the everyday world. O'Connor saw grace all around her, but no radiant angels "sent by God" appear in her fiction; rather, she believed that it often takes a rude shock - if not an outright trauma - to jolt people out of their complacency and into an awareness of their need for salvation. In both "Revelation" and "Greenleaf," this comes through the encounter of smug, self-righteous female protagonists with secondary characters they consider to be inferior. Because we tend to read literature from a secular viewpoint, we want the central question in the story to be whether bourgeois propriety gives one the right to demean others. But that isn't really O'Connor's point. The epileptic girl who attacks Mrs. Turpin in "Revelation," the "common" Mr. Greenleaf who rankles Mrs. May in "Greenleaf," or the serial killer in "A Good Man is Hard to Find" are not merely symbolic of the world's "have-nots." They are catalysts in the process of spiritual redemption. Like their counterparts in other O'Connor stories, they jar their respective protagonists out of their easy assumptions about life, and catapult them into a new relationship with the Divine.

Extractions: What some Lit 2020 students thought about OConnor In the short story 'A Good Man is Hard to find' the issue of religion is the center of focus in my opinion. I was shocked an appalled to say the least by this violent story. It began normally, discussing who's in the family and where they're going to go for their vacation. I had no idea that it would end so tragically I had to read the lines over again because I could not expect such a tale to come from this innocent beginning. I had expected the story to end peacefully and just tell a nice family tale but I was surely surprised and I did like how the author grabbed my attention as it was drifting away. I was pretty bored with it at first, felling that it was unraveling too slowly, but then all of a sudden everything is thrown at you at once. On one hand that was a horrible story that gave me chills. It was really shocking and disturbing knowing that he had that father and son executed Overall I did like the story, even though it was pretty disturbing and depressing - it just pretty much had a more realistic backing theme then most stories - life isn't full of happy endings.
