O’Connor Southern or Catholic
O’Connor writing style is Grotesque. In the short story “A Good Man is Hard to Find” I would say O’Connor portrays the character Misfit. Misfit is in control the entire time and the writer is also in control of the text. Misfit is a man who wants attention and does not know how to get it without killing someone. O’Connor is a dying woman who uses her writing skills to gain attention. Her frustration involves in Misfit actions towards the helpless family in the story.
In the short story “Revelation” O’ Connor seems to portray Ms. Turpin personality traits. O’ Connor writes if she is ungrateful about her creation. Ms. Turpin is outspoken and she tries to tell everyone else what they are to be doing with their life. She is prejudice, nic picking and worries to much about others well begin. O’Connor uses writing to demonstrate her outspoken ways. She writes rudely about other to demonstrate her prejudice befits.
In the short story “ Parker’s Back” O’Connor seems to be about to experience death she might think she might think she is going to see God’s face for the first time. She uses Parker to demonstrate her weakness. A man who cries is in great pain. O’ Connor does not think she cannot go any farther. When Parker runs out of space for anymore tattoos on his body this may indicate O’Connor body is to weak for any medicine to cure her illness. Right after she wrote this story she passes away.
I think O’ Connor is Catholic because of the story she writes. She is direct and to the point. She speaks about God in all of her writings. She is struggling to overcome something that is impossible without God’s help. It seems that she losses faith throughout her stories that is why she writes bitter.
