Taste is subjective. There is no "best" novel. Only the novel that YOU think is best. And that I think is best. Etc. QED

The intro to that book is written with a thesaurus and the purpose for writing that ways doesn’t justify it existence.

Suttree is not outer dark and doesn't end aimlessly in a swamp.
Suttree only has *some* of the pretty horses.
Suttree doesn't have a reincarnating supermarket trolly as a man talks to himself.

It's so ridiculously over the top that it's great simply because of how much strain it probably took.

Says the man who never wrote anything worthwhile in life. A writer's perspective in writing a certain way goes way beyond what casual readers think writing should be about.

Well /lit/'s historically put Blood Meridian above Suttree but since the former's blowing up on Youtube and eventually TikTok watch /lit/ decide Suttree is his Cormac's best. But yeah I do actually think it's his best.

Whenever this opinion gets posted, I just assume another army of butthurt fags have arrived to cry over Blood Meridian. It's amazing how much that book makes retards irrationally angry.

Criticism should be genuine with a basis. Don't fool yourself if you think that's the case on the board.
