In the story, so I ain’t no good girl written by shorn flakes. I feel that the author gave a very interesting premise of love and abuse. This could have given very unique and complex characters but is unfortunately brought down, by its sloppy generic writing that is the characters and dialogue.
But before I get ahead of myself first you need to know what happened. So in the story I ain’t no good girl we see our protagonist, a girl that does not like the “good girls” because she is jealous of them as hinted by the story. As the story continues we get to see her boyfriend and we see that they stay together, even if it shouldn’t be like that. I’m Arnoldo Roque and this is my character critique.
Now 1st thing is The characters dialogue;

    In her short story “A Good Man Is Hard to Find”, Flannery O’Connor introduces the reader to a world of family issues, danger, and murder. The story was written in 1955 during a period of social and racial unrest in the southern United States. Mostly, the story follows O 'Connor 's basic Southern Gothic writing style, a work that is "cold and dispassionate, as well as almost absurdly stark and violent" (Galloway). While the quote gives major insight into the tone of the story, it does not offer a glimpse into O 'Connor 's real message of the story. Her take on the characters is a complex mixture of agreement and disapproval.…

The conflicts started towards the middle of the story, but the plot was present at the beginning of the story we just didn’t see it.…

    According to the article good girls accept their gender role in society and act as women are “supposed to”. Just as she argues how the bad girls are treated she examines how good girls are treated. Tyson emphasizes that “the “good girl” is rewarded for her good behavior by being placed on a pedestal by patriarchal culture” (3). Tysons point is that women who accept their gender role are treated much better and are given the chance that the bad girls are denied. The patriarchal society looks up to the good girls to be the influence of what women should behave like in their ideal world.…

The blatant and somewhat abrasive manner O’Conner goes about writing this story hints that she is attempting to portray an unsettling message. However, after closely examining the literary clues O’Connor leaves behind the readers can conclude that the piece offers a disturbing image of human tendencies and natural desires that goes unspoken in society. By closely examining the grandmother’s characterization, family animosity, and Misfit’s metaphorical purpose through a psychological lens, the reader can attain O’Connor’s commentary on the human self.
