O'Connor is one of my faves, a Southern Catholic like me.  What is it that
draws you to her work?  I remember being surprised once, although I
probably shouldn't have been, when Philippe Lacoue-Labarthe told a
philosophy class at Berkeley that Wise Blood was one of the best and most
philosophical novels to come out of the US.  (Those French guys!)
