    effective‚ if not disturbing‚ humor. I say "disturbing" because O’Connor’s humor‚ along with humor in general‚ most often contains the tragic. Throughout her works‚ specifically "Good Country People‚" O’Connor uses her humor to humble and expose the biases of the overly intellectual and spiritually bankrupt.
