Out of these only Suttree is worth reading. It's a masterpiece.

OP, don't take literature recommendations from people who discuss the cover before the text

Oh shut up you contrarian. Blood Meridian is just as good as Suttree.
>>

This. Suttree was a proto-BM, he was working in both at the same time.

Blood Meridian just smoothly connects all those short-story vignettes into a pseudo narrative hiding something darker

You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll be confused, bored, enraged, and sorrowed.

Suttree is ass. Haven't read No Country but The Road is better than suttree and BM.

I stayed up til 5am reading The Road in one sitting, loved it.
>>
the world is very... dark, man. its a place for grimy though skinned spit spitting wanderers of the dark and grimy earth. the world doesn't care, but is evil, and everyone could die. i mean will. its like a game. an evil game. of blood. its almost... profound.

Thing I love about Cormac is he always chucks in a dudes rock moment in every novel
