Abstract
Throughout "The Jilting of granny Weatherall," Katherine Anne Porter makes granny sound like she has not done poorly for herself. In reading the first couple of paragraphs of the short story, Porter makes it known that granny doesn't have it easy. Life is hard on her. On the surface, there is a woman who thinks that she hasn't done so terribly for herself considering the hardships in her life, but there is definitely more underneath. Looking more into the granny's life, the truth emerges from below the top layers. Porter uses events like jilting at the altar, the early death of her husband, the death of Hapsy, and getting no sign from God on her deathbed to show the disappointments in her life.
