What does /lit/ think of Blood Meridian?

Amazing, unimpeachable, piece of shit, Reddit-tier, based, essential, perverted, vacuous, godly, etc

Greatest novel ever written. Haven't read it tho.

an inferior version of Flashman and the Redskins

It's a meme book just like infinite jest, you're not supposed to actually fall for it by reading it

Personally didnt care for it. I think it tries really hard to be fucked up and brutal which is a bit silly, though there are some scenes where this is handled really well like with the dead baby bush. I think the book spending so much time wanking off the Judge is obnoxious, I think it gives him too much focus. Not a terrible book, but I would not recommend.

Probably McCarthy's best novel and he's probably the greatest American literary author of all time.

I still think All the Pretty Horses is a better read though.
