A Good Man Is Hard To Find Grandmother Analysis

313 Words2 Pages
I have chosen to write the second paper on the Grandmother in Flannery O’Conner’s short story A Good Man is Hard to Find. She is the biggest character in the story and is the most outspoken. She is the Matriarch of the family, but is not treated as such. She is treated with much disrespect, and this doesn’t seem the norm for when the story it written. The story opens with Grandmother trying to gain her son, Bailey’s attention. “Now look here, Bailey,’ she said, “see here, read this,” and she stood with one hand on her thin hip and the other rattling the newspaper at his bald head.“ She has the stance of a very determined woman. You are told in the first line that she doesn’t want to visit Florida, but wants to go to Tennessee instead
