Flannery O'Connor /Theme And Symbolism
[ send me this essay ]
5 pages in length. 'I suspect that most of you have been telling stories all your lives ' is the assumption Flannery O'Connor makes in her lecture entitled Writing Short Stories. For it is difficult for O'Connor to fathom that people perceive writing fiction as a chore, when it is something she achieves as though it were of no effort whatsoever. Her main points to writing good fiction involve the use of symbolism and theme, which the writer compares and contrasts between two of O'Connor's works: Good Country People and Everything that Rises Must Converge. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
