October O'Connor Book Club

Meet to discuss Jessica Hooten Wilson’s new book, Flannery O’Connor’s Why Do the Heathen Rage?: A Behind-the-Scenes Look at a Work in Progress. This is a recent publication of an unpublished manuscript that O’Connor left behind, along with notes and ideas she had documented. It takes her thinking about race far beyond what she had done in her short life, and presents the opportunity for tantalizing speculation. (2 PM in person in Eatonton, GA at the Writer’s Museum; on Zoom at 7PM)
