"Audacious, original, and dripping with symbolism, these short stories are worth every word. Flannery O’Connor certainly doesn’t write cliché.
The Complete Stories of Flannery O’Connor is a massive collection of stories, spanning more than 2 audiobooks" Read more of this review » |

Ooft. That ending. And also, the beginning. And some bits in the middle. So, soooo contrived! Truly. There were so many coincidences, so many chance meetings, that you could be forgiven for thinking the London of this novel was a village of sixteen p ...more |

“She danced the way she always did, holding her body and arms still while her legs and feet sprang across the floor. When she was sober, her head remained stationary; when she was drunk, it nodded in time to the music. She always closed her eyes. She always wore the same, ecstatic smile. And I, always, watched in wonder.”

“I can’t stop my thoughts. I can’t stop comparing myself to others. I can’t stop looking at myself, both directly and in the mirror;”

“I looked at Emma and realised that she was grinning – actually grinning – directly at me. ‘Love you, Jamie,’ she said. I fought back a sudden prickling of tears, then told her that I loved her too. And for that moment, nothing more was required. It was, in its way, perfect. I felt safe, and strangely optimistic. My worries had disappeared, like rain on summer earth. I took a deep breath, savoured the feeling for a few seconds more. Then, with a final smile, I turned from the room, secure in the knowledge that even the most difficult times contained moments that made a person feel truly alive.”

Something heroic or wonderful that won’t be forgotten after I’m dead…

“Don't be ashamed to weep; 'tis right to grieve. Tears are only water, and flowers, trees, and fruit cannot grow without water. But there must be sunlight also. A wounded heart will heal in time, and when it does, the memory and love of our lost ones is sealed inside to comfort us.”
