I agree that Flannery O'Connor uses both foreshadowing and flashbacks to create suspense and tension in the story "A Good Man Is Hard to Find." For example the author uses flashbacks when in the story "A Good Man Is Hard to Find" is on there way to the Tennessee and the grandmother says "In my time," said the grandmother, folding her thin veined fingers, "children were more respectful of their native states and their parents and everything else. People did right then. Oh look at the cute little pickaninny!" she said and pointed to a Negro child standing in the door of a shack.
