Rumpole and My Unfair Thoughts
It has been said that you can lie all you want in non-fiction, especially in the autobiographical form, but that it is impossible to lie in fiction. This has been an interesting contradiction that allows the reader to learn a great deal about certain writers that those authors may prefer to keep hidden in their own thoughts, not exposed on the bare page. And with this thought in mind, I want to talk about Rumpole of the Bailey.

Insight into Mary Flannery O'Connor's Short Story 'A Good Man is Hard to Find'
People may have preconceived ideas of what they believe it means to be good, but it seems like a far cry from true perfection. Not only is a “good man hard to find,” but a good man is impossible to find at least according to what Mary Flannery O’Connor’s writing suggests. In the short story A Good Man is Hard to Find, the author uses symbolism, realistic characters, and a theme of grace to illustrate humanity’s problem and provide a solution.
