A Good Man Is Hard to Find Week 3

"A Good Man Is Hard to Find" by Flannery O'Connor was kind of weird story to me. An old saying once said, don't judge a book by its cover or title. The reason why I mentioned this saying is because when you first look at the title, you'll think that this story is about some relationship that isn't going right, or someone looking for a male partner. When really it's the complete opposite of what you think. This story is actually about a family going on a road trip. The grandmother and the children's mother had an argument about where they should go to vacation; the grandmother thought visiting Tennessee was better than going to a place they have already been. As I was reading, the grandmother seemed like a real stubborn and bad-tempered person that just complains about everything. The children are smart-mouthed and their mother doesn't pay much attention to her children. Reaching Tennessee, the family stops at this restaurant called The Tower, where fear is upon many of the people there; a criminal named "The Misfit." Being the way she is, the grandmother always has some sort of story to tell from her younger years. Surprisingly the grandmother recognizes the Misfit when she sees him, and claims that his a good man.
