À propos de ce livre

An epic novel of the violence and depravity that attended America's westward expansion, Blood Meridian brilliantly subverts the conventions of the Western novel and the mythology of the "wild west." Based on historical events that took place on the Texas-Mexico border in the 1850s, it traces the fortunes of the Kid, a fourteen-year-old Tennesseean who stumbles into the nightmarish world where Indians are being murdered and the market for their scalps is thriving.

  • Josh100/100

    Blood Meridian is enjoyable; for the kind of people who enjoy deeply disturbing things that they can’t unread. For first time readers, I would suggest purchasing a bottle of whiskey to accompany the book.
