Florence Virginia King

Florence Virginia King

Florence Virginia King (b. January 5, 1936, Washington, D.C.) is an American novelist, essayist and columnist.

While her early writings focused on the American South and those who live there, much of King's later work has been published in National Review . Her column in National Review, "The Misanthrope's Corner", was known for "serving up a smorgasbord of curmudgeonly critiques about rubes and all else bothersome to the Queen of Mean", as the magazine put it.

She is a traditional conservative, but not a "movement conservative" and objects to much of the populist direction of the contemporary American Right . Miss King (she rejects the term "Ms.") labels herself a "misanthrope".
