| Summary: | In this latest volume in IVP Academic's Studies in Theology and the Arts series, theologian Michael Mears Bruner explores O'Connor's theological aesthetic and argues that she reveals what discipleship to Christ entails by subverting the traditional understandings of beauty, goodness and truth through her fiction. Bruner's study serves as a guide for those who enjoy reading O'Connor and, even more so, those who, like O'Connor herself, follow the subversive path of the crucified and risen one. |
