Apocalypse of Self, Resurrection of the Double: Flannery O''Connor''s The Violent Bear It Away Suzanne Morrow Paulson Flannery O''Connor''s The Violent Bear It Away seems to resist the glimpse of the author''s "sacred consciousness" that she promised the reader.1 An odyssey toward madness rather than salvation, the novel begins with the death of Mason Tarwater and ends with a grotesque " resurrection" as old Tarwater''s will takes over the psyche of his young nephew, Francis.

Flannery O''Connor: The Obedient Imagination

Sarah Gordon

Even a writer like Flannery O''Connor, who in her prime writes boldly and confidently, clearly grappled in her formative years with questions of power and authority. This fact is evident in the stories in the master''s thesis, and these concerns continue to manifest themselves to some extent in later work as well. O'' Connor would doubtless have been chagrined to see her masters thesis stories included in the 1971 volume The Complete Stories. That thesis, The Geranium: A Collection of ...
