a good man is hard to find.
First of all, beyond the story, the title is a TRUE STORY. haha. Anyway, this story focuses on the grandmother's perspective, a selfish lady, who wants to live and die "like a lady." Because of her, her son Baily ends up in a ditch on this trip to Tennesee, and she and her family encounter the "misfit." They are all shot, and at her last moment, she wants to become a woman of wisdom and sincerity, and try and talk her way out of being killed, but it's too late. Only at the last moment of her life after her whole family has been killed does she want to become a good woman. My favorite part is the ending when the misfit says “she would of been a good woman . . . if it had been somebody there to shoot her every minute of her life.”
