Even though the Convent seems to function as Ruby's opposite, foregrounding from the New Fathers' perspective Ruby's rightfulness and chosenness (in a way reminiscent of Toni Morrison's explanation of the creation of whiteness as a response to blackness in Playing in the Dark), it actually deconstructs the polar logic that characterizes Ruby's Puritan thought by becoming a crossroads, the place where Ruby and the Convent intersect and where the outside world and the Convent converge.
