Radical Ambivalence is the first book-length study of Flannery
O'Connor's attitude toward race in her fiction and correspondence.
It is also the first study to include controversial material from
unpublished letters that reveals the complex and troubling nature
of O'Connor's thoughts on the subject. O'Connor lived and did most
of her writing in her native Georgia during the tumultuous years of
the civil rights movement. In one of her letters, O'Connor frankly
expresses her double-mindedness regarding the social and political
upheaval taking place in the United States with regard to race: "I
hope that to be of two minds about some things is not to be
neutral." Radical Ambivalence explores this double-mindedness and
how it manifests itself in O'Connor's fiction.
