Flannery O'Connor and Edward Lewis Wallant: Two of a Kind

By John V. McDermott

Flannery O'Connor and Edward Lewis Wallant: Two of a Kind reflects upon the works of these two 20th Century American writers. In style and substance, the fiction of O'Connor and Wallant highlights a convergence seldom seen in literature through their singular vision of man as deeply spiritual in nature. Both writers were preoccupied with the meaning of man's existence-his understanding of himself, his relationship with his fellow man, and his relationship to God-and their writings provide a unique examination of their philosophical views.
