Question

What was McGovern's reaction to her difficulty in finding O'Connor's grave?

Answer 1

Answer:

b. Perhaps O'Connor was laughing from beyond.

Explanation:

In the article written by Linda McGovern titled "A Good Writer is Hard to Find: The Search for Flannery O'Connor", she recounts how she and her husband had tried to locate the graveside of the famous writer Flannery O'Connor. Despite her popularity, her grave was much difficult to locate, so much so that the writer had to ask a local resident for help.

When she and her husband first arrived at the cemetery, they though finding the grave will be an easy task, considering the popularity of the dead writer. But despite their full efforts, they couldn't seem to find it. This difficulty in locating the grave leads Linda to wonder if "this [was] another way O’Connor was laughing from beyond". This was her reaction to the difficulty they encountered in trying to find the grave of the famous author Flannery O'Connor.
