Analytical c for the Enduring Chill
The Enduring Chill is a short story by Flannery O'Connor. In this story Asbury returns to his family in the south. He returns because he thinks he is dying and has no money to continue living in the north. When he returns home he tells his mother he is dying and she won't believe him. In the end of the story, a doctor is able to find out why he is sick and is able to help cure the sickness.
I think that this is a good story if you are into stories with a deeper meaning. If you want to read a story with a thick plot and adventure, this is not the story for you. The story has a many different themes that are represented in all of O'Connor's other works. She writes to criticize things she doesn't like, and represent thinks she believes in. She has a lot of Christian themes and doesn't seem to like people who have a higher form of education.
After reading other stories by O'Connor, I really enjoyed reading this story. To truly understand her and all her works, you must read more then one of her stories. If you read more then one you will be able to identify continuing themes and character types. The story lines might not be the greatest you have ever read, but the deeper meanings are some of the best. The meanings might be hard to identify, but there are in all of her stories. Overall this was a good story with a strong meaning behind it.
