Hallelujah! I have discovered the greatness that is Flannery O'Connor!

I cannot believe that I have survived this long without discovering her work. It's amazing.

I was having a very unproductive library trip last week, so I decided to peruse the classics section because I can always find something there.

Nothing really struck my fancy though so I decided to grab Mansfield Park and an anthology of Flannery O'Connor works.

I am in love with her writing. It's so rich and the imagery is amazing. I can almost visualize the scenes as I'm reading.

Sigh, too bad I'm sitting through the most mind-numbingly dull class that ever existed right now. I thought CivPro was bad, but this is much, must worse.

I'm going to start banging my head against the desk until sweet oblivion arrives.

Ooh. I know of Flannery O'Connor, but I haven't actually read her work yet. I'll put that on the honeymoon reading list... :-)

What's CivPro? Civil something or other?

I read O'corner's "A Good Man is Hard to Find" back in College. I thought it was very good! I even did a term paper about it ^_^
