/lit/ - Literature

I've started killing young men.

This is greatest American litarary work of the second half of the 20th century

>"And the kid realized that it was indeed a bloody meridian."

Do you guys read this trash?

That would've made a good cover for Blood Meridian too

I just read this book. Is it good?

I read this book while I'm on the toilet taking a shit. Sometimes I take a page out and wipe with it.

how does that make you feel?

Is Cormac McCarthy worth reading?

Was it rape?

>There are anons raised by single mommy right now ITT who do not want to taste the essence of the man, the eternal war and violence in them.

goddamn did you drink water without filter and use plastic bottles

What dos /lit/ think of Blood Meridian? What's your interpretation of the ending/the novel as a whole? I've seen it on a bunch of charts but I don't think I've ever actually seen it discussed here.

Ok, I didn't enjoy The Road as a teenager. I thought it was lame.

I read No Country for Old Men for a class at some point and didn't like it either.

Before I discard McCarthy forever, I want to ask, is this book transcendent of his other books? If I hated those other two should I still try this?

What was the deal with the Judge and the fool? The Judge treats him like a dog and then he just sort of vanishes from the story

Si I bought a copy of Blood Meridian today, I've been keen to read it and I've seen quite a few threads of people discussing the book.
I have read a few of McCarthy previous works and I found them easy to digest but what about Blood Meridian.
What am I in for, I've flipped through a few pages briefly and I've seen a few places whiten ins Spanish and some Spanish phrases, should I know basic Spanish?
and with the history of the Glanton Gang and the local area, am I going to be lost and looking up references a lot of the time.
