Andalusia Farm Blog: An Interesting Question | Arts & Culture

Read on as the folks at Andalusia Farm ponder what Flannery O'Connor's writing would be like if she were writing now.

As I was chatting with Craig earlier about an idea I had for this week's blog post, he raised an interesting question.  If Flannery O'Connor were alive and writing today how would her work be different from the fiction she penned more than half a century ago?  Or would it be any different?  Would her style and themes have evolved?  If she were writing today would she sound more like Barbara Kingsolver, Dorothy Allison, or Cormac McCarthy?
