 | Going It Alone
July 01, 2008 - Katherine Anne Porter (1890-1980) was in many ways an anomaly among the previous century's major American writers. A greatly gifted and enduringly beautiful woman, she earned early recognition as a pristine stylist whose haunting fiction evoked the energetic symbolism of Hawthorne and Poe; equaled and frequently surpassed the achievements of her great contemporaries Hemingway and Faulkner; and blazed a trail of thematic and rhetorical possibility traveled by such disciples and soul mates as Eudora Welty, Jean Stafford and Flannery O'Connor.
