There are many similarities between the short stories "Good Country People" and "Where are you going‚ Where have you been?"‚ most notably their characters. Both stories contain a female protagonist‚ and a male antagonist‚ whose confrontations start out relatively normal‚ and progress to more and more surreal and twisted endings.

You’ve Just Been Brandwashed There is a man lying sluggishly on his couch. He’s been there for what has seemed like an eternity‚ watching hundreds of commercials throughout his shows. He bites a burger he just recently bought and clenches a pain within his chest. His conclusion could have been from the burgers and chips he watched on television‚ how long he was sitting on that couch‚ or the methods the advertisements used against his mind.
