<P> The story "Cathedral" seemed to me completely different from everything I'd written before . I was in a period of generosity . The character there is full of prejudices against blind people . He changes; he grows . The sighted man changes . He puts himself in the blind man's place . The story affirms something . </P> <P> Bruce Allen of The Christian Science Monitor considered "Cathedral" to be "among the year's finest fiction," and he wrote, "The story is about learning how to imagine, and feel - and it's the best example so far of the way Raymond Carver's accomplished miniaturist art is stretching itself, exploring new territories ." Samuel Coale of The Providence Journal praised the way an "unpoetic soul" is able to describe the cathedral to a blind man: "Even in such nihilistic landscapes, epiphanies are still possible, and Carver makes us feel them with a quiet, smoldering joy that only such accurate and unblurred landscapes in fiction can produce ." </P>
