"I preach there are all kinds of truth, your truth and somebody else's. But behind all of them there is only one truth and that is that there's no truth."
"I have found that anything that comes out of the South is going to be called grotesque by the Northern reader, unless it is grotesque, in which case it is going to be called realistic."
- Flannery O'Connor, quoted in Mystery and Manners, 1972

Flannery O'Connor is a great author and I have long enjoyed her work. As a native Georgian I grew up knowing and playing with all her characters, in fact I'm sure you could find me in there somewhere too.
