The Complete Stories by Flannery O'Connor
4.0
How did anyone think it was a good idea to have middle or high school students read “A Good Man Is Hard to Find”? It’s by far the most terrifying (and terrifyingly good—pun intended) story I’ve ever read.
Sometimes the completist urge can dilute an artists' body of work (especially posthumously) and that’s exactly what knocks this down from being a complete five-star classic. But the good stuff is here is inimitably great, so still highly recommended.
