For this DB, start by reading “Cathedral” by Raymond Carver, then answer the questions below.
1. In writing about this story, Ewing Campbell observed that instead of presenting a person who experiences change through struggle and pain, “Cathedral” lets us see a narrator who discovers a life-affirming truth without the pain. Do you think that this structure—and its casual unfolding—is an effective way to approach a redemptive theme? Why?
2. A cathedral is a symbol of strength and acceptance. Describe a specific instance in the story where Carver uses the cathedral symbol for these purposes.
