Wise Blood Literary Devices

Explanation and Analysis:

In Wise Blood, O'Connor's writing style can be characterized as ironic and sardonic. The novel is particularly marked by foreshadowing and an ominous mood, which constantly leaves the reader apprehensive about what will come. However, O'Connor doesn't necessarily treat the characters or events with cynicism. Nor does she betray any clear religious, political, or ideological perspectives or motives. Rather, she treats her fictional creations with a matter-of-fact, balanced acceptance. This seems to go hand in hand with her claim in the Author's Note to the Second Edition from 1962 that "Wise Blood was written by an author congenitally innocent of theory, but one with certain preoccupations."
