The leg personifies both Joy/Hulgas virility and the rigidity of her soul. Owing to her handicap, she believes in nothing and coldly cuts all emotional bonds to life “as a good surgeon scrapes for cancer” (141). At one point she was her mothers Joy, but resolving that the “dust” (132) of her presence warrants “the ugliest name in any language,” (132) disposes of the name her mother christened her and baptizes herself “Hulga”. The name and the statement “If you want me, here I am- LIKE I AM” (131) communicates Hulgas portrayal of herself to the world. She deems most people as doomed by their own stupidity and gratifies in causing their pain. Mrs. Freeman, who, as her name intimates, is not impelled by others outlooks, earns Hulgas abhorrence because Hulga “had found that it was not possible to be rude to her,” (132) and thus derives no satisfaction from her. Hulgas mindset embodies the radical effect that a flaw, whether actual or imagined, has on action and perception.
The exploit of deception to realize ones appeals is exhibited through Manley Pointer. His presentation as “good country people” (135) earns Mrs. Hopewells immediate trust, for she believes he is “the salt of the earth” (135). With the poise of his heart condition, he lures her trust further, as Hulga is diagnosed with the same ailment. He also stresses his devotion to “Christian service” (135) with the purpose of selling a few Bibles. The phallic inference of the name “Manley Pointer” symbolizes the masculine sexuality with which he hoodwinks Hulga.
