Anotated bibliography Hyman, Stanley Edgar. “Flannery O’Connor.” __American Writers.__ Eds. Leonard Unger. Minnesota: Charles Schribner’s Sons, 1972. 337-360  This source is mainly her biography from the time she was born to death and some after. It has a table of contents at the front organized alphabetically by the author’s last name. The text is in paragraphs that tell about everything from her past to the works she has composed. After the part about her life is over they go on to explain her works and the plots of each one. This was especially helpful in finding what her main focus in writing was and what she was trying to draw attention to through her writing. Though lengthy it had good information. Diagram Group “Flannery O’Connor.” __Literary Lifelines.__ Eds. Nicola Chalton. Danbury, Connecticut: Groiler Educational, 1998. 146-147  This source included a quick biography of her life with the most pertinent information from her life such as her birth date, college, date of death, etc. It was quick, concise and to the point. Saving time but sacrificing information that might have been important. It also had a timeline of events that were happening throughout her lifetime, to lend to reasons which she might have had to write some of the things she had. There was also a list of authors from her time and a list of her famous works. I used the list of her works to find one from which to get a quote, to get a bit of insight into her views. Its biography would have proven useful if I had not already gotten information from another source. “Overview of (Mary) Flannery Oconnor.” //DISCovering Authors//. Online ed.
