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.

“JOHN BROWN in Kansas settled, like a steadfast Yankee farmer,Brave and godly, with four sons—all stalwart men of might.There he spoke aloud for Freedom, and the Border strife grew warmerTill the Rangers fired his dwelling, in his absence, in the night;            And Old Brown,            Osawatomie Brown,Came homeward in the morning to find his house burned down.
Then he grasped his trusty rifle, and boldly fought for Freedom;Smote from border unto border the fierce invading band:And he and his brave boys vowed—so might Heaven help and speed ’em—They would save those grand old prairies from the curse that blights the land;            And Old Brown,            Osawatomie Brown,Said, ‘Boys, the Lord will aid us!’ and he shoved his ramrod down.” Actually, it would be wise of you to proofread it properly. I have found all this online. No idea, if it is correct. Or you could get it edited by the professional writing service as Prime Writing. They can do that fast and at an affordable price
