Reviews

Over the years, John Lawrence Darretta has brought us to richer levels of understanding the best literary culture. 'Before the Sun Has Set' is at once a masterwork of graceful analysis and the most significant appreciation of Flannery O'Connor yet to appear. (Donald Spoto, Author of 'The Kindness of Strangers: The Life of Tennessee Williams') John Lawrence Darretta's sensitivity to Flannery O'Connor's fictional project is evident in this analysis of her work. Completely familiar and comfortable with the context of O'Connor's fiction, Darretta offers readers significant insights not found in the work of other commentators. (John W. Mahon, Professor of English, Iona College, New York)
