Literary Haunts—Andalusia
Amy Welborn has some lovely thoughts about her recent trip to visit Flannery O’Connor’s Andalusia in Milledgeville, Georgia.
We went to the cemetery a few blocks away where Flannery is buried (and now her mother, too). At the time, there were absolutely no markers or signs pointing to her grave. We searched and searched, and finally ended up at the caretaker’s shed, and were invited into a pickup truck and driven to the spot. Another man stood there. He looked up as we approached and said, “They still don’t want to claim her, do they?”
