Where do you draw the line between helping a soul in need and being taken advantage of? How far past that line can you be pushed? To what extent will you put it to an end?
These are some questions explored in this story. This one feels a bit different than the others in the collection, but continues the dark themes. It’s well written especially the ‘ghost like’ father presence

Usually like to log these short stories individually. I read Everything That Rises Must Converge this morning and audibly said "what the fuck" when I finished it. Interesting, misguided characters as usual. I don't think Flannery O'Connor is the best source of literary material on civil rights but the attitudes of the mother and son continue to feel relevant
