In this episode, we discuss “A Good Man is Hard to Find” by Flannery O’Connor. What can we say about a story with so much already written about it? How is this story like a Greek Tragedy? How can we use the form of a Greek Tragedy to inform our own fiction? How can fiction handle so many characters in a scene? How can POV help handle many characters? Can we try to introduce more characters into our short stories?
