The present article is a comparison between the treatment of the sacrament of Baptism in selected works of two female American Christian writers: Flannery O’Connor, a Catholic writing in the Southern United States in the early twentieth century, and Marilynne Robinson, a literary award-winning contemporary Midwestern academic and Protestant. Focusing on O’Connor’s The Violent Bear It Away (1960) and Marilynne Robinson’s Gilead (2004), I show how both authors, each with her own convictions about the responsibility of the Christian writer, attempt to capture a kind of “sacred beauty” in their fiction. This beauty, which is defined and shaped by a tension between the immanent and the transcendent, is deeply rooted in God’s grace, and may be made visible by the sacraments.
By comparing these two novels, I show how Baptism functions as a blessing that expresses the worth God has instilled in mankind. This blessing points to something beautiful in fallen creation; namely, His very image. Beginning with the fact that both The Violent Bear It Away and Gilead include a warped Baptism ceremony that points back to the original meaning of the sacrament, I place the two novels side by side in my analysis of their discussion of the meaning of Baptism, the value of life in light of mental illness, and the beauty of the present moment. Ultimately, I argue that both O’Connor and Robinson, in vastly different ways, attempt to show that which is beautiful in human life in its fallenness, which, to their minds, always points back to grace.
