In “A Good Man is Hard to Find” I feel like the narrator wanted to convey a moral lesson to the reader. Flannery O’Connor uses different plot and scenery to reveal the ugly side of human behavior and how our actions can affect others. The story was unpredictable. While I was reading it I felt very anxious and wanted to see what would happened during the family trip to Florida. The ending was very surprising but in the back of my head I knew something was going to happen the minute the misfit showed

Their appearance is in no way proportionate to the great value they have. This is true of human beings also. A person may be good looking having an attractive character. But he may not possess any real ability or talent. He can even turn out to be unscrupulous too. A man must be judged on the basis of his abilities and not on his external appearance.
