Gossamerchild reviewed Good Man Is Hard to Find by Flannery O'Connor
Review of 'Good Man Is Hard to Find' on 'Storygraph'
This is a tricky one to review. O'Connor is a fabulous writer, there's no doubt about that. I'm not a huge short story reader and she really sucked me in. These particular stories, though, are hard to read. Not difficult, hard. Are her white characters so racist and bigoted on purpose, is she trying to make a point? Or was she really that racist? Maybe both? I'm glad I finally got around to reading this, but it's definitely not something I'd pick up again.
