The Absurd in the South: The Case of Flannery O'Connor
Original language description
The chapter analyzes Flannery O'Connor's novel Wise Blood as an absurd novel and shows that in her early essays O'Connor, writing about the grotesque, characterized the absurd instead. It also illustrates her turn to the grotesque in 1961, which also marks the change in her approach to her first novel. In its introductory part, the chapter also gives the overview of the use of the term "the absurd" in American contexts, explaining why O'Connor could not be familiar with the absurd as an aesthetic category.
