A good man is hard to find
Even in the beginning the story unf octogenarians there is dim-witted irony that in Just the title of A Good while Is gravid To Find, where a nice family vacation turns Into a disastrous murder. When I first began reading, I never thought that the story would founder such(prenominal) an ending. The mood of the story went from normal to sad fairly quickly. there was an eccentric of foreshadowing at the beginning of the story when the grandma dressed up nicely so f there was an accident any whiz seeing her in death will know that she was a lady.The grandma seems to believe that her morals for life be correct and her thoughts and beliefs are superior to that of anyone elses. She could see everyones flaws debar her own. I dont think the grannie Is a well-be produced per parole, with her uppity attitude, and invariable ridicule of her son, and how she made the statement Oh look at the cute small-scale picnicking shows how shes really oblivious of the world beyond her own mind . The grandmas perception of good is obviously of her own morals as she stated That Red surface-to-air missile had been a good man for letting someone cheat him pop out of his money.Obviously getting cheated out of your money is not a good thing. There is situational Irony in the story because as the grandma talks most not going to Florida because there Is a misfit, nobody pays attention to her, change surface dismissing what she was saying and them not earreach to her put them on deaths path. The grandmother warns that The Misfit is on the loose, but the family chooses to head towards Florida anyway. The way the situation happened not listening to her and listening to her brought somewhat their demise.Another example of irony is that however though the grandmother express she would never take her family to a place where a Misfit is running a lose she ends up lead-in them to the Misfit anyway. While driving the grandma worthy nostalgic from seeing a dirt road and thinks abo ut an old plantation and wanting to see It again lies about the house have trapped doors making the children beg to see it. At this point in the story the grandma leads the family into their death because she didnt mentioned that she made a mistake about the plantation that she remember was in Tennessee and they were in Georgia.After remembering her feet Jumps scaring the cat that she wasnt so-called to bring on the trip to Jump onto Bailey causing him to spin, thus leading Into the fated accident. There was another example of situational Irony because the help that the family sure after the accident happens to be the Misfit the grandma originally warned bout, but they unless happen to be in Georgia and were supposed to be in Florida.I think the Grandma knew she was going to die because as the Misfit lead her son and his family away she called the Misfit a good man and that he wouldnt shoot a lady. She begged for her life and did not care to try and save her son or grandchildren. She Just kept claiming to the misfit that he was a good man, even though he stated which is why he went around sidesplitting people in order to fulfill his life. He knew what he was doing was untimely but he killed the grandma anyway.A Good Man Is Hard To FindThe story is about a family from Georgia who is on a trip to Tennessee. In the midst of the journey, the grandmother mentions an old plantation which her grandchildren precious to see. Despite Baileys hesitation, the family proceeds based on the grandmothers instructions.However, on their way to the give tongue to plantation, the grandmother suddenly remembers that the plantation she was talking about was in Tennessee and not in Georgia, where they were. The family meets in an accident which damages their car.They see a enactment vehicle on the road and call for help. The people riding it, unfortunately, are The Misfit and his companions who just recently escaped from prison. In the end, The Misfit ordered his companions t o kill the whole family, except the grandmother who he killed himself.The themes of this story are grace and redemption. In the beginning of the story, the distinction is simple. The grandmother represents the good, while the Misfit represents the bad. However, in actuality, both characters have a negative side (Interpretations, n.d.).Their negative side was reflected by their selfishness and their simple regression with it. The Misfit was preoccupied with his penchant for killing, while the grandmother was absorbed with her efforts to save herself (Interpretations, n.d.)The grandmother was immersed with her own concerns until her encounter with The Misfit. Her transformation to goodness only started when she was in riskiness (Interpretations, n.d.). She began to pray, and succumbed to faith in the face of death. At that point, she reached her moment of grace before she died (Interpretations, n.d.).On the other hand, The Misfit addresses his desire for grace when he answers grand mothers nouswhether Jesus can raise the dead. When she reached out to him and declared him as one of his children, the grandmother gave him an opportunity for redemption. Thus, the story conveys that everyone has a chance for grace and redemption.ReferencesInterpretations of A Good Man is Hard To Find.
