1. Wise Blood by Flannery O’Connor

    “Most people fall in love with Flannery over her short stories, but I fell for her over her first novel Wise Blood. This book has elements of what make her short work so endurable, such as the dynamics of faith, the motivation of (false) prophets, and the cruelty of man when faced with obstacles. Sprinkle in some dark humor and voila, another great story by Flannery.”

    She hated protestants and satirized them yet she enjoyed the freedoms a country created by protestants gave her.
