It is the story of Hazel Motes, a twenty-two-year-old caught in an unending struggle against his innate, desperate faith. He falls under the spell of a "blind" street preacher names Asa Hawks and his degenerate fifteen-year-old daughter, Lily Sabbath. In an ironic, malicious gesture of his own non-faith, and to prove himself a greater cynic than Hawks, Hazel Motes founds the The Church Without Christ, but is still thwarted in his efforts to lose God. He meets Enoch Emery, a young man with "wise blood," who leads him to a mummified holy child, and whose crazy maneuvers are a manifestation of Hazel's existential struggles.

英文版果然比中译本好很多。很多透露关键字眼的词中译本根本没把握到。 Enoch就是个尼采主义者，那个死人就代表着上帝已死，而唯意志主义使他追求本能和意志的所谓生命力，最终使他堕落成非人，追寻撒旦。（从远处的猫头鹰那处可以看出来） Sabbath就是个传统的天主教者，她尴尬于自己是个bastard，所以她想通过爱来redeem，所以她去seduce主人公，她在象征着十字架的树中来回跳跃，就是象征着上... 英文版果然比中译本好很多。很多透露关键字眼的词中译本根本没把握到。 Enoch就是个尼采主义者，那个死人就代表着上帝已死，而唯意志主义使他追求本能和意志的所谓生命力，最终使他堕落成非人，追寻撒旦。（从远处的猫头鹰那处可以看出来） Sabbath就是个传统的天主教者，她尴尬于自己是个bastard，所以她想通过爱来redeem，所以她去seduce主人公，她在象征着十字架的树中来回跳跃，就是象征着上帝以一种的方式来劝他从别的十字架回到真正的十字架上。还有那些云也是象征。 (展开)
