You should start with his easy reading pleb novels NCFOM, Child of God and The Road to get used to his style before diving into his more substantial work like Suttree, Border Trilogy or BM.

If you want to continue being weak don't finish this book. If you want to understand how and why a man must make his own decisions and exert his own will into this world than keep reading until the last page.

I confess I read Blood Meridian first and no other McCarthy book came close to quenching the bloodlust I expected from him after that
AtPH is a distant second

the book is a good read, it's a fun little western romp and really gets you in the mood to imagine the much harsher violence of Blood Meridian

Thanks for the suggestion anon I really appreciate it

Honestly better than Blood Meridian. So much more honest. McCarthy can't make anything that isn't completely contrived unless he's writing like a journalist with a TBI, and even then his subject matter is usually suspect

Corncob "tortillas" YeCarthy is a pseud hack fraud who impresses brainlets with vapid stylistic chicanery that gives off the illusion of erudition and thought where there is none.

ah, blood meridian, monsieur? that novel is the sark and chaparral of literature, the filament whereon rode the remuda of highbrow, corraled out of some destitute hacienda upon the arroya, quirting and splurting with main and with pyrolatrous coagulate of lobated grandiloquence. our eyes rode over the pages, monsieur, of that slatribed azotea like argonauts of suttee, juzgados of swole, bights and systoles of walleyed and tyrolean and carbolic and tectite and scurvid and querent and creosote and scapular malpais and shellalagh. we scalped, monsieur, the gantlet of its esker and led our naked bodies into the rebozos of its mennonite and siliceous fauna, wallowing in the jasper and the carnelian like archimandrites, teamsters, combers of cassinette scoria, centroids of holothurian chancre, with pizzles of enfiladed indigo panic grass in the saltbush of our vigas, true commodores of the written page, rebuses, monsieur, we were the mygale spiders too and the devonian and debouched pulque that settled on the frizzen studebakers, listening the wolves howling in the desert while we saw the judge rise out of a thicket of corbelled arches, whinstone, cairn, cholla, lemurs, femurs, leantos, moonblanched nacre, uncottered fistulas of groaning osnaburg and kelp, isomers of fluepipe and halms awap of griddle, guisado, pelancillo.
