Ain't it the truth? But seriously....before taking on this classic volume of short stories I had never read anything by Flannery O'Connor. I knew she was popular for her Southern-style classic literature, but that was all I knew. Honestly, I have been disappointed. I really didn't enjoy it. I couldn't find anyone in the stories that I cared about besides the innocent children and the dialogue is so annoyingly mid-century southern that it was hard to read-'n' word included. I am completely open to trying her again if someone has a suggestion of another work. Until then, I am done with her. Too many other good books to get into.
