Description: "Written between 1946 and 1947 while O'Connor was a student far from home at the University of Iowa, A prayer journal is a rare portal into the interior life of the great writer. Not only does it map O'Connor's singular relationship with the divine, but it shows how entwined her literary desire was with her yearning for God"--Dust jacket flap.
