The stories that we have been concentrating on in English are "A Good Man is Hard to Find" and "Revelation" both by Flannery O' Connor. They are actually very different in the fact of their storylines, but taking a deeper look at them has led us to discover that they have great universal truths. O'Connors stories show a sense of humanity and grace within people. She shows the relationship of her characters going through a traumatic experience in order to find Grace like with the Grandmother in "A Good Man is Hard to Find" and Mrs. Turpin in "Revelation". I think that O'Connor was a very perceptive woman of humanity and changes coming in the world and that we would all have to be more accepting. She shows the challenges of these changes within the very characters themselves and their unwillingness to change.
