Good Country People
"Good Country People" is a short story by Flannery O'Connor. It was first published in the June 1955 issue of Harper's Bazaar, and is included in her 1955 short story collection A Good Man Is Hard to Find. In the story, an educated Southern atheist resents her affluent mother's overbearing manner and patronizingly dismisses a traveling Bible salesman as a "good country person". When she goes on a date with the salesman, her worldview is quickly upended. The story is often considered one of O'Connor's best works.
