How many books did Flannery O’Connor sell?

How many books did Ayn Rand sell?

Let the consumer judge which is a better messenger.

I am not sure that Quantity of book sales should be a strict metric. One could always reply with: How many Korans have been sold? or: How many Bibles have been sold?

“How many Bibles have been sold?”

The Bible is the foundation of Western culture, which has led the world. The Koran doesn’t belong in the same sentence.

People tend to buy books based on how much they value the anticipated message or story. Hence, the Koran (odd people as they are), the Bible, Ayn Rand................Flannery O’Connor.

Are YOU Flannery O’Connor?
