Flannery O’Connor “Good Country People”

Answer two of the following:
1) What is the significance of the characters names? How are the names ironic? Can we take them seriously? Is the author poking fun at them?

2)By the storys conclusion, Mrs. Freemans world view, ironically, seems to reflect reality how so?

3)Describe Hulga/ Joy: why the bifurcation? What is OConnor suggesting about her disability? Is it only one of body? What are her academic achievements? How do they seem out of place? Come back to the theme of disability when you read Cathedral.  You could easily write a paper on the symbolism of her prosthetic leg.

4)Describe the Bible-salesman. What is his game? By the end of the story, we see he is really a psychopath or sociopath. How would a doctor diagnose him? You could even refer to the DSMV used by psychologists.

5)Describer his interaction with Joy in the hay loft; how does he betray her and ultimately outsmart her? 

6)What of their conversation about religion and faith? Does he, the uneducated one, point to any perceived gaps or problems with her thinking?  Her reaction? Is there a joke here?

7)What is the significance of the title? How does the hypocrisy compare to hypocrisy in another story?
