《Wise Blood》是Flannery O'Connor令人惊叹且难以忘怀的处女作小说,亦是二十世纪文学的经典之作。小说讲述了二十二岁的Hazel Motes陷入与自身与生俱来的绝望宿命不断抗争的故事。他迷恋上了一位名为Asa Hawks的“盲人”街头传教士及其堕落的十五岁女儿Sabbath Lily。出于一种讽刺、恶意的非信仰姿态,并为了证明自己比Hawks更愤世嫉俗,Motes创立了无基督教会(Church Without Christ),但在试图摒弃上帝的努力中仍屡遭挫败。他遇见了Enoch Emery,一个具有“

……还清楚记得不会认字时的刺痛感,以及妈妈教我认字后的如释重负。那时我五岁,从那以后我就没停下过阅读。再过两个月我就 38 岁了。我正在读 Flannery O'Connor 的《Wise Blood》,因为 O'Connor 既毒舌又幽默。最喜欢的书?正如其他人指出的,这是个荒谬的问题——也是我最喜欢的那类问题!我钟爱的一些书:《Lolita》《As I Lay Dying》……

Some books I love: Lolita, As I Lay Dying,…

You know, this whole idea of applying what you read to your own life, even if it's good literature is really funny. I've been rereading a lot of southern gothic lit, and thinking about applying Wise Blood or Confederacy of Dunces to guide my life actually seems kind of hilarious (even though O'Connor especially has some interesting commentary packed in her works).
