Mischiecious is the answer. Next time
Southern Gothic is a genre with a mood that combines Southern details, such as small-town life, with terror or suspense. Unlike early gothic literature about vampires and ghosts, Flannery O’Connor and others began writing about the monsters around us in everyday life. A key characteristic of this genre is having deeply flawed characters. In “A Good Man is Hard To Find,” both the grandmother and The Misfit are deeply flawed characters for very different reasons. The Misfit is a murderer who seems to have been created by a failed penal system, while the grandmother seems like a proper lady at first, but turns out to be selfish, a racist, and ultimately gets her whole family killed. It is through these characters that O’Connor explores the theme of good and evil, and whether people are truly capable of change.
Answer:
In "The Open Boat," the cook was forced to bail out water initially, even though he didn’t quite like the sea. He would often say, "Gawd! That was a narrow clip," in reference to the looming waves. The oiler and the correspondent were compelled to keep on rowing, despite their growing tiredness: “The plan of the oiler and the correspondent was for one to row until he lost the ability, and then arouse the other from his seawater couch in the bottom of the boat.” This sentence conveys the growing exhaustion that the two men felt. The behavior of the sea was inconsistent as well. The sea would buck like a bronco at times and appear calm at other times. This would happen irrespective of how tired or sleep-deprived the men on the dinghy were. The sea did not judge the men’s situation when treating them the way that it did. The sea also did not seem to care as the men were approaching the shore, toward the end of the story, and destroyed their dinghy, forcing them to swim to shore despite their exhaustion. While one wave helped the tired correspondent reach the shore safely, another wave ended the oiler’s life. The random treatment of the two men who did the same job on the boat—rowing—exemplifies nature’s indifference to man.
