Wise Blood, Flannery O'Connor's astonishing and haunting first novel, is a classic of twentieth-century literature. 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. This tale of redemption, retribution, false prophets, blindness, blindings, and wisdom gives us one of the most consuming characters in modern fiction.
"Wise Blood has reached the age of ten and is still alive. My critical powers are just sufficient to determine this, and I am gratified to be able to say it. The book was written with zest and, if possible, it should be read that way. It is a comic novel ab...

Oh no! You're a reincarnated being who will eventually be reincarnated as every person in this classic trolley problem. What do you do?

没想到奥康纳是这样的，阅读体验非常痛苦，只有最后一章感受到了些许阅读的乐趣。前面一半的篇幅，不知道作者东拉西扯的意义何在，男主人买了辆二手车这件事用了一个章节，全书也不过十四章。枯燥乏味到如同在看一个无比沉闷的欧洲黑白文艺片。读毕，看了耶鲁大学公开课与本书相关的视频，知道了男主人公的姓氏与眼睛相关的隐喻，家这个概念与宗教信仰的关系，许多个在我看来乏味细节背后的隐喻。打扰了，告辞。全书最大的震撼是，... 没想到奥康纳是这样的，阅读体验非常痛苦，只有最后一章感受到了些许阅读的乐趣。前面一半的篇幅，不知道作者东拉西扯的意义何在，男主人买了辆二手车这件事用了一个章节，全书也不过十四章。枯燥乏味到如同在看一个无比沉闷的欧洲黑白文艺片。读毕，看了耶鲁大学公开课与本书相关的视频，知道了男主人公的姓氏与眼睛相关的隐喻，家这个概念与宗教信仰的关系，许多个在我看来乏味细节背后的隐喻。打扰了，告辞。全书最大的震撼是，原来Walgreens已经存在了几十年，甚至上百年？美国企业或品牌的长久存在总是能震撼到我，一种时空的穿越感。 (展开)

Amazing! 看到最后忍不住惊声尖叫的好! 有种人类文明塌陷后的荒凉感，荒原磷火，伴随着无声嚣叫，庸俗地比较似蒙克的《呐喊》，虽然小说最重要的意象是另一个感官，不能够剧透。小说倒数第二章结尾写landlady的地方简直是神品。读完这本书，忍不住又想去看圣经。今年怎么也该完结掉它。😠

信与不信之间摇摆，厌恶Jesus从小到大都被耳提面命Jesus为自己的罪行被钉上十字架，嘴硬反驳我又没让他给我赎罪，却还是把石子装在鞋子里苦行僧式地进行一段旅程试图弥补，甚至在荒废的房子里留字条试图保护母亲的遗物，希望母亲死后的灵魂回来时可以感到安慰。他喜欢确定性，已知性，然后人生的变数不可预料，命运要带你去何方无从知晓，最后的出逃故事戛然而止，私以为应该是一个循环，到达、短暂停留，出逃，需要补给... 信与不信之间摇摆，厌恶Jesus从小到大都被耳提面命Jesus为自己的罪行被钉上十字架，嘴硬反驳我又没让他给我赎罪，却还是把石子装在鞋子里苦行僧式地进行一段旅程试图弥补，甚至在荒废的房子里留字条试图保护母亲的遗物，希望母亲死后的灵魂回来时可以感到安慰。他喜欢确定性，已知性，然后人生的变数不可预料，命运要带你去何方无从知晓，最后的出逃故事戛然而止，私以为应该是一个循环，到达、短暂停留，出逃，需要补给……仿若一场修行 (展开)
