This is a recording of Flannery O’Connor reading “A Good Man Is Hard To Find” in 1959. A friend sent it to me years ago (when I still lived in Texas), and my first listen was during a late night drive from Austin to San Antonio.

I was terrified, thrilled, and completely in love with her voice.

    I’m almost finished “A Good Man Is Hard To Find” and I’m pretty certain Flannery O’Connor is one of my favorite writers.
