Radical Ambivalence is the first book-length study of Flannery O\'Connor\'s attitude toward Race in her fiction and correspondence.
In one of her letters, O\'Connor frankly expresses her double-minde.
O\'Connor lived and did most of her writing in her native Georgia during the tumultuous years of the civil rights movement.
It is also the first study to include controversial material from unpublished letters that reveals the complex and troubling nature of O\'Connor\'s thoughts on the subject.
