In discussing Flannery OConners A Good Man is Hard to Find, a literary critic named Martha Stephens once wrote of the storys ending, commenting that the failure of the final scene and hence of the story seems to result from a tonal shift that occurs midway through the story and finally runs out of control. [OConner seems to imply] that life is wholly senseless and contemptible and that our fitting end is in senseless pain. What do we know about A) OConnors religion, B) her views on violence, and C) the words exchanged between the grandmother and the Misfit just before he shoots her that Stevens may be misunderstanding or overlooking in her criticism? (We did not read the Stevens piece, so please work from the above quote alone)
