In any age, humans wrestle with apparently inexorable forces. Today, we face the threat of global terrorism. In the aftermath of September 11, few could miss sensing that a great evil was at work in the world. In Flannery O'Connor's time, the threats came from different sources--World War II, the Cold War, and the Korean conflict--but they were just as real. She, too, lived though a time of terror. The first major critical volume on Flannery O'Connor's work in more than a decade, Flannery O'Connor in the Age of Terrorism explores issues of violence, evil, and terror--themes that were never far from O'Connor's reach and that seem particularly relevant to our present-day setting.
