Product ReviewsBlood Meridian : Or the Evening Redness in the West by Cormac McCarthy (2001, Hardcover)

THE CORMAC McCARTHY YOU HAVE TO READ

One of the greatest novels in American literatuire. Let it stand on the same short shelf with Moby Dick, The Great Gatsby, The Heart is a Lonely Hunter, and those half a dozen others which, in your esteem, tower above others in exemplifying the very best in American letters. Superbly crafted prose masterfully leads you through terrifying material and mental landscapes. McCarthy's West is at once horrifying and alluring. This is not the merely excellent, Oprah-approved, safe-for-high-school Cormac McCarthy of The Road. This is the author at a stunning peak of skill. Read full review...

Third time reading

This is basically the greatest book written by an american author. Cant explain how amazing the writing is, his vocab/style/narrations/microstories.

"They set forth in a crimson dawn where sky and earth closed in a razorous plane. Out there dark archipelagos of cloud and the vast world of sand and scrub shearing upward into the shoreless void where those blue islands trembled and the earth grew uncertain, gravely canted and veering out through tinctures of rose and the dark beyond the dawn to the uttermost rebate of space."

Hard core western.

This is an amazing western story. Very gritty. The wordsmithing is superb and rich with images. Not a story for the faint of heart, but a true classic.

Great Product, well made book.

As far as hard cover books goes, this does the trick, it's well made and fairly attractive. The price point was good and I'm very happy with the product.
