Essential guide needed for using the O'Connor manuscripts at GC&SU...,
By R. Neil Scott "Writer, Professor & User Servi... (Murfreesboro, TN USA) - See all my reviews (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: The Manuscripts of Flannery O'Connor at Georgia College (Hardcover)
Offers a description of the arrangement of O'Connor's manuscripts in the Flannery O'Connor Collection in the Ina D. Russell Library at Georgia College & State University and notes that they illustrate how she "often produced dozens of variants of single episodes."Discusses in particular the large number of drafts that exist for her last two stories -- "Parker's Back" and "Judgement Day" -- and indicates that they "suggest the amount of rewriting that O'Connor normally did [for her stories] and, consequently, how many of the drafts for her other fiction are missing." Entries in the catalog "describe the physical appearance of the manuscripts in the folders and files, and the plot, characters and stylistic and formal characteristics of their contents." Details the arrangement of the 905 folders in 297 files and how they are cross-referenced to other related files. Provides an index which "shows the order of the files and folders...[and] how [Driggers'] file numbers differ from Dunn's. Also included is a timneline indicating dates O'Connor is believed to have worked on each piece of fiction. R. Neil Scott / Middle Tennessee State University |
