O'Connors Short Stories

The three stories that Flannery O'Connor wrote, "A Good Man Is Hard to Find","Revelation", and "Parkers back" are all significant books. O'Connor ties the three stories in with Religion. All three books contain some type of religion or religious character. There is at least one main character in each story that is the religious one. That character is always telling the others whats right and whats wrong. Another theme O'Connor ties her stories with is Racism and/or Criticism. Each story displays the characters criticizing one another. By the stories had being written in the 60's they are attested with what was going on during that time like whites against blacks, segregation, and so on. The inequality in the stories and the verbal abuse towards the blacks. I think everything O'Connor ties in with her stories have something to do with things that are based on her background and her religion.
