Argues that Flannery O'Connor designed a unique asthetic to defy the Gnostic dualisms that characterize American intellectual and spiritual life. Focusing on stories with artist figures, objets d'art, and embodied images, Lake describes how O'Connor's fiction actively resists romantic theories of the imagination and religious life.
