Formal Presentation #2

Title: Flannery O’Connor’s the Quest to Vision Spirituality, Hope and Existence
Thesis:
In Flannery O’Connor a Good Man Is Hard to find and Other Short Stories, we find two stories that focus in on one another in two very diverse ways. In Flannery O’Connor’s “The River” and “Good Country People,” we see that life is not always the way we would picture it providing us with many trials and tribulations. In O’Connor’s short stories we vision that life for some of us is to difficult and hardened by what God has provided us with, not always willing to except things the way they are and try to take our life to a whole new outlook through a vision of spirituality and comedy.
Quotes:
“She officially changed her name to Hulga to reflect the ugliness she feels about her life and to spite her mother.” (Bosco)
“But nevertheless is filled with Christian hope given neither death nor pain.” (Sparrow)
“That there can not really be such a thing as good country people.” (O’Connor)
I would appreciate any comments or suggestions at the bottom, and then return it back to me:
