It is the story of Hazel Motes, a twenty-two-year-old caught in an unending struggle against his inborn, desperate fate. He falls under the spell of a \"blind\" street preacher named Asa Hawks and his degenerate fifteen-year-old daughter, Sabbath Lily. In an ironic, malicious gesture of his own non-faith, and to prove himself a greater cynic than Hawks, Motes founds 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 Motes's existential struggles.This tale of redemption, retribution, false prophets, blindness, blindings, and wisdom gives us one of the most riveting characters in American fiction.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eAuthor: O'Connor, Flannery. | Publisher: Farrar, Straus and Giroux | Pages: 256 | Publication Date: 2007-03-06 | Edition: First Edition | Binding: Paperback | MSRP: 15 | ISBN13: 9780374530631 | ISBN: 0374530637 | Other ISBN: 9781466829060 | Other ISBN Binding: printisbncanonical | Language: en | Store Location: General Fiction | \"Book cover image may be different than what appears on the actual book.\"\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51536400810272,"sku":"NEW0374530637","price":19.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71op9XrLhyL.jpg?v=1777413608","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/wise-blood-a-novel-fsg-classics-0374530637","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
