English Comp. II: Flannery O' Connor, "A Good Man Is Hard To Find"

For my first assignment is English 1102, I had to read "A Good Man Is Hard to Find" by Flannery O' Connor. This is a very deep story which illustrates the increasing difficulties in finding genuinely good men, or people in general for that matter. The amazing thing is, O'Connor wrote this story back in 1955, a time condidered by many people today to be a time in our history filled with good people. If O'Connor were alive today, she would be appalled by the current state in which we live. Everyday, there are reports of people stealing from and harming one another. So one wonders, if Ms. O'Connor were to write her story today, would it be appropriate for her to title the story "A Good Is Impossible to to find? You be the judge. Well, that's all from me for now, goodnight.
