A Good Man Is Hard To Find1
The setting of the story "A Good Man is Hard To Find" in the beginning is in the dinning room, where everybody is sitting and reading the paper "He was sitting on the edge of his chair at the table" in Atlanta and the month is June or July, because the children are at home and they are about to go on a vacation. Then the second important setting of the story is outside of Toombsboro, on a dirt road, the time is afternoon and the sky is clear with no clouds or any sun.This story "A Good Man is Hard to Find" by Flannery O' Connor, is a very good example of a typical mediocre family, who is about to go on vacation to Florida. The writer explains the situations very well. Like the first seen when the Grandmother is talking to her only son "Bailey" trying to change his mind, not to go to Florida instead go to Tennessee. At this point the writer is trying to convey something to the readers, a foreshadowing of an event that is going to happen later on in the story. Along with this there is a second message for the readers, when she points out the misfits on the loose headed to Florida, she gives this reason not to go to there "I wouldn't take my childre
The last words the grandmother speaks are that he like her child and touches him on the shoulder, the writer tells us that he backs up like if a snake had bitten him, by this the writer wants to tell us that The Misfit is not used to people touching him and this shows his mental health and the reason of his brutality, which is followed by three more shots to grandmother in the chest. But after reading the story I am glad that the story wasn't what I thought it would be, instead it was more interesting, and intriguing on the fact that there aren't any trust worthy people left in this world and that everything is self motivated. " By this the children get excited and started screaming at their dad to take them there, "The children began to yell and scream. I liked the way the writer has written the part for the grandmother, I think that, the role of grandmother in this story explains all the grandmothers that there are, that they would even lie to get there way and they would indulge the kids to have their way from their own children. "John Wesley, a stocky child with glasses" and "the little girl, June Star" The children start arguing with their grandmother on the topic of the misfits and try their best that she wouldn't go with them on the trip. " The next day they all set out for their trip in their car, the writer in a way compares the children's mother and the Grandmother, for the way they are dressed. I liked the way the writer explains each and every detail, but at the same time she doesn't go into that much detail either. The writer explains the pain that she goes through when she gets shoot, "raised her head like a parched old turkey hen crying for water and called, "Bailey Boy, Bailey Boy!"" at this The Misfit passes a comment that shows his smart mind and by this the writer wants us to know that The Misfit is not some killer he is a smart man who got trapped by the consequences of his life and turned the way he is, on the run from the law.
