KAP p394

In the last KAP letter that I posted about, KAP is writing to a woman named Josephine. In that letter, she is "whiny" etc. We discussed this "whiny" tone in PHPR and again in the letter to Josephine. We have mentioned several times that KAP writes more like a woman whereas Flannery O'Connor writes more like a man. I found this letter to William Ross very interesting in that KAP, while still writing like a woman, works very hard to make her point of view sound intelligent. Her writing style between the letter she wrote to Josephine and William definitely contrast one another. Interesting.
