unchanged by their experiences?
I will give brainiest if question is answer fully

Answer 1

The grandmother in "A Good Man is Hard to Find" changes in the sense that she seems to care about another person for the first time. On the other hand, in "Spunk" the characters change by becoming the opposite of who they initially were. The coward becomes brave, the brave becomes a coward.

What happens in "Spunk"?

In the short story "Spunk," Joe is perceived as a coward by the community where he lives, especially because of his inability to confront his wife and her lover, Spunk.

By the end of the story, however, the roles are inverted. Joe confronts Spunk in his first act of bravery, but gets killed. Still, his ghost comes back, haunts Spunk, leaning him terrified, and then kills him.

While the grandmother in "A Good Man is Hard to Find" goes from uncaring to caring, Joe goes from coward to brave, whereas Spunk goes from brave to coward.
