I really liked it. Gang of lowlifes wandering through rural southwest/northern Mexico in 1900 and inflicting violence as they move along. There’s also a godlike judge character.

I think he gets sexually abused and killed literally to death, showing that despite his earlier heroics against the judge, there is ultimately no way to win and our destiny is calamitous beyond reckoning

A Poem for Leolenin

I am sad

Because I was hurt

Physically, in the knee

Spiritually, in the abandonment

By abandonment, I specifically refer to

The loss of my mother

At the age of four

Thanks

They crossed before the sun and vanished one by one and reappeared again and they were black in the sun and they rode out of that vanished sea like burnt phantoms with the legs of the animals kicking up the spume that was not real and they were lost in the sun and lost in the lake and they shimmered and slurred together and separated again and they augmented by planes in lurid avatars and began to coalesce and there began to appear above them in the dawn-broached sky a hellish likeness of their ranks riding huge and inverted and the horses' legs incredibly elongate trampling down the high thin cirrus and the howling antiwarriors pendant from their mounts immense and chimeric and the high wild cries carrying that flat and barren pan like the cries of souls broke through some misweave in the weft of things into the world.

it's fine if you can enjoy writing for its own sake, similar to joyce or burroughs.

it's a worthless book if you need some kind of driven narrative and actual character development to enjoy a novel.

Of course it’s worth reading. It’s an enormous accomplishment and highly enjoyable, esp. if you’re not a philistine and enjoy the Great American Tradition of the KJV, Emerson, Whitman, Moby Dick, etc.

Of course it's worth reading. It's like many other great American novels that become (too) popular with high school boys and then annoying faggy shitheels start talking about how "shitty" they are to be contrarian. Is Catcher in the Rye overrated and teen angsty? Sure of course. Is it "worth reading"? Yes, obviously. I don't think I'm being too strong when I say that everyone who thinks Blood Meridian isn't "worth reading" should fucking kill themselves.

If you like to read, yes. Otherwise probably not. I thought it was great. Nothing like a 25 stone frequently nude naturalist fucking people up.

I find Cormac McCarthy’s latent atheism distasteful, but he writes paragraphs into sentences and the judge is badass.

It’s so much better on a re-read when you recognize the kid is doobs and the judge is halford.

Yes.

But rather than rereading it I recently watched a YouTube video that went through the text chapter by chapter and I found that more manageable than trying to read it all over again. The video ran more than 4 hours long but it was helpful to get another reader’s take as the story moved along, such as it is.
