Now that we have thought about point of view, plot, and setting, it is time to think about character.

We can learn a lot about a story by paying attention to important character information

For example, A Good Man is Hard to Find does not make a lot of sense unless you try to understand who the grandmother is, and how she is connected to what happens to the family.

The Grandmother, what do you make of her?

Who are some important characters in this story, and why are they important?
