Follow essay instructions below CAREFULLY. AVOID WORDINESS.At the end of Flannery OConnors A Good Man Is Hard To Find we see the murdered grandmother in a puddle of blood with her legs crossed under like a childs and her face smiling up at a cloudless sky. In a well-organized and developed essay of five paragraphs, explain the grandmothers epiphany. (We can assume her spiritual epiphany happened at the last moment of her life when she reaches out to the Misfit.) For those of you who strongly believe the grandmother had no such epiphany, your thesis will address WHY she was not redeemed at the very end. MY ADVICE: This essay is, I think, easier to write if you assume she was saved at the very end when she reached out to touch the Misfit.SUGGESTION: In thinking about the story you might take into consideration the following passage from the New Testament, Matthew 18, 3:And (Jesus) said, Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will by no means enter the kingdom of heaven.Note: It doesnt matter what your beliefs are in writing this essay. What does matter is that you simply appreciate that OConnor herself often used the topic of what makes a good Christian and Christian hypocrisy in her stories.SUGGESTED OUTLINE:I. Introductory paragraph of 4-5 sentences in which the last sentence is a thoughtful thesis (main point) which responds to the question posed (explaining the grandmothers epiphany, assuming there is one the symbolism and imagery of the story suggest that she did experience a sudden redeeming epiphany).
