A detailed account of O'Connor's life and her status as a fervent Roman Catholic in the predominantly Protestant South during the period of World War II and the Cold War sheds light on her literary motivations and her brilliant use of the grotesque.

Special emphasis is put on the exploration of character relationships, important themes and cultural signifiers, which again links up with the first part of the paper.
