Procesando…
 …
 …
 Estoy agotada. Mentalmente, porque me ha quedado clarísimo: esto no es una novela, es un descuartizamiento. Y físicamente, porque me perdí entre sus páginas y me quedé hasta las tantas leyendo. 

Aquí no hay alivio: solo hombres que matan por matar y un juez enorme, imposible, que parece reírse de nosotros a cada rato. ¡Qué personajazo! Es taaaan aterrador: no muere, no sangra, solo baila. Nunca había leído algo tan perturbador, tan absoluto. 

Cada página es una procesión de violencia escrita con un lenguaje bíblico. McCarthy te arrastra, te destroza, te deja hecha polvo… y aun así sigues leyendo. 

Imposible no reconocer que esto es una obra maestra. Salgo del libro tambaleándome, confundida, y llena de polvo. 

Nunca había leído a este autor, y sé que muy pronto va a caer otro librito suyo 👏

One of, if not the greatest, western fiction stories ever put to paper. It has single-handedly ruined the western genre for me; nothing will ever be able to out rank it in my mind. Cormac McCarthy's unique blend of Hemingway and Faulknerian story-telling develops an engine to a motorize this dense, dark and hellish story about violence and its inherent, flawed stitching within the fabric of man's heart.
