"Flannery and Caroline: The Letters of Flannery O'Connor and Caroline Gordon, 1951-1964
is a full, annotated collection of the letters between two of the South's most acclaimed
writers, from 1951 to 1964, the year of O'Connor's death. To date, only nine letters
of the O'Connor-Gordon correspondence, scattered across four publications, so this
volume will fill a major gap in our understanding of the two writers. Gordon (1895-1981),
a more established writer at the start of their correspondence, acted as a mentor
to the younger O'Connor (1924-1964). Gordon offered critical commentary on early versions
of such legendary O'Connor stories as "A Good Man is Hard to Find" and "The Displaced
Person," as well as O'Connor's debut novel, Wise Blood. Over the course of thirteen
years, the letters in this collection reveal a deep friendship between two literary
masters, as well as their roots, influences, concerns, and regrets"
