Description: "This book offers essays by leading scholars who have advanced the codification of O'Connor as a writer preoccupied with religious, and especially Catholic, theories. In counterbalance, the collection presents voices of sharp dissent. These scholars find themselves at odds with O'Connor's own interpretations and with much of the existing scholarship concerning her work." "The promise of such a diverse collection rests in the dialogues between and among their essays."--Jacket.
