For our next book discussion, we are reading the collection of short stories A Good Man is Hard to Find by Southern writer Flannery O'Connor. This work of literature lines up with our gallery exhibit A Deeper South, a collection of writings and photography that documents a journey into deeper understanding, and even at times a relearning, of the South’s history by Pete Candler.

Our discussion will consider the whole collection, but focus primarily on:

• ”A Good Man is Hard to Find”

• “The River”

• ”The Life You Save May Be Your Own”

• ”Good Country People”
