Blodets meridian

Novel, Historical novel by Cormac McCarthy

Blurb

Blood Meridian is widely recognised as the masterpiece of Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Cormac McCarthy. It is an historical epic, a compelling reinterpretation of the Western, and one of the great American novels of the twentieth century. It tells the story of a teenage runaway known only as the kid, who falls in with a group of notorious outlaws: the Glanton Gang. Violent, direct and extraordinarily powerful, the novel traces the destiny of the kid as he falls further and further from grace, and into the clutches of the mysterious and demonic Judge Holden.
