Suffering in Catholic Literature

The Power and the Glory by Graham Greene and “Revelation” by Flannery O’Connor are known for their depictions of suffering and grace. In examining these texts, we can see the ways that suffering might be considered a grace that ultimately leads to redemption. This aligns with Biblical passages such as 1 Peter 4 and Hebrews 2. When reading these works of literature alongside scripture, we can begin to answer big questions such as, “Why is there suffering in the world?”
