Judgement Day- Flannery O'Connor


 
What to answer while reading:


How individuals accept old age and finality. How does Tanner face his inevitable death? What does he want to get out of life during his final months? What does this tell us about him?

 
The relationship between generations. What differences are there between Tanner and his daughter/ son-in-law/ neighbors?


Race and class in the mid-20th century south. How does Tanner approach issues of race? Why is this problematic?
