ON “IS GOOD STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION.”

Call it under construction or a work in progress; Flannery O’Connor said: “Most of us have learned to be dispassionate about evil, to look it in the face and find, as often as not, our own grinning reflections with which we do not argue, but good is another matter. Few have stared at that long enough to accept that its face too is grotesque, that in us the good is something under construction.”
