'You shall know the truth and the truth shall make you odd.'
I'm one day late, but I had to post a birthday post for one of my favourite authors, Flannery O'Connor.
Born in Savannah, Georgia, on 25 March 1925, she created a body of literature marked by 'Christian realism': bold, disturbing, grotesque... But also graceful and redeeming.

“The world was made for the dead. Think of all the dead there are... There's a million times more dead than living and the dead are dead a million times longer than the living are alive...”

Some photos from my recent trip to the #FlanneryOConnor Childhood Home in #Savannah. The aging moss-covered dogwood in the first pic is the only surviving plant in the courtyard that was actually alive during Flannery O’Connor‘s childhood. The cathedral spire is a view from the upstairs bedroom window. As a young girl, Flannery literally grew up in the shadow of the Catholic church.

22 followers · 38 posts · Server tkz.oneMe he dado una vuelta por algunas páginas y he investigado un poquito para traeros esta curiosidad. Hay muchos más autores, está claro, pero he hecho una breve selección para que veáis que no todos tienen la misma rutina ni el mismo horario a la hora de escribir. Algunos de estos escritores tienen también ciertos rituales asociados a la hora de escribir, pero creo que eso será para otro post. Algunos escriben de noche y otros se levantan bien temprano para hacerlo. Hay quienes escriben por unas pocas horas y otros que pasan largas jornadas dándole a la tecla. Mi rutina suele ser más bien de mañana y mientras hago algunas tareas cotidianas, pero también, si puedo, le robo algunas horas a la tarde. Y tú, ¿cuándo escribes?

Recommended reading for weaving darker elements in narrative:
- Ernest Hemingway (short stories)
- Edgar Allen Poe (stories and poetry)
- Flannery O'Connor (short stories)
- Haruki Murakami (novels)
- Ernest Hemingway (novels)
Yes, #ernesthemingway deserves to be there twice. #flanneryoconnor is a hidden gem with dark elements hidden under irony and wit. #harukimurakami can be downright brutal in earlier books, but engaging, provocative, and powerful
