A good man is hard to find is a saying, which some use to show their frustration from constantly meeting the wrong types of men. Only wanting to be loved some of us tend to find it in the wrong places. After a bad relationship, we begin to question is there any such thing as a good man? This brings me to a reading by Flannery O’ Connor, “A Good Man Is Hard to Find”. In this writing she uses the words “good man” several times. In this reading Flannery uses the word to express what she thought was…
