“A Good Man is Hard to Find” is about a family on a trip to Florida and the trip goes downhill before it even started. Based off my interpretation of the family, everyone has a not-very-nice attitude. The grandma, especially. She seems to be very racist and harsh. Her family seemed to just go along with everything she said as well, so I can assume they are probably the same. I feel that the “interior” of the story leads to the grandmother and her personality/motives. It is a reminder to be mindful of our actions and words, as everything in life has consequences, some that we cannot prevent. The story also shows that even the most miserable and unkind person can change within seconds when put in a certain situation. When we think about certain things, while always hoping for the best, we must also be prepared for the worst.

One thought on “Fatima Butt Week 8 Discussion”
Hi Fatima! I really admire how insightful this comment was but also keeping it very simple. i completely agree with your perspective on the interior aspect of this story. On how to be mindful of our actions as everything in life has consequences. I also felt like this story gave the idea of the commentary of the nature of good and evil. As even tho the grandmother was very flawed she still saw the errors in her ways as to the misfit who was also very flawed DIDNT see the errors in his ways. Thank you!
