A review by andpasturesnew
Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy

adventurous challenging dark emotional funny mysterious sad tense slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

much to ponder. perhaps some of the most immaculate, stirring writing I have read. profound and haunting. It'd be reductive to say the book is merely about violence, imperialism, america, evil, or religion--but then again, what is it about?
