{"product_id":"the-complete-stories-1","title":"The Complete Stories","description":"Winner of the National Book Award  The publication of this extraordinary volume firmly established Flannery OConnors monumental contribution to American fiction. There are thirty-one stories here in all  including twelve that do not appear in the only two story collections OConnor put together in her short lifetime--Everything That Rises Must Converge and A Good Man Is Hard to Find.  OConnor published her first story  \"The Geranium \" in 1946  while she was working on her masters degree at the University of Iowa. Arranged chronologically  this collection shows that her last story  \"Judgement Day\"--sent to her publisher shortly before her death?is a brilliantly rewritten and transfigured version of \"The Geranium.\" Taken together  these stories reveal a lively  penetrating talent that has given us some of the most powerful and disturbing fiction of the twentieth century. Also included is an introduction by OConnors longtime editor and friend  Robert Giroux.","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44647437860917,"sku":"ByrdShop_1439512949","price":315.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/ByrdShop_1439512949_9d913387-166e-4d1a-bde0-ec4c3dc2faa8.jpg?v=1768175209","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-complete-stories-1","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
