Synopsis "Blood Meridian: Or the Evening Redness in the West "

25th ANNIVERSARY EDITION - 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--from the bestselling, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Road 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. Look for Cormac McCarthy's new novel, The Passenger.

(Rhode Island, 1933 - 2023 New Mexico) spent much of his childhood in Knoxville, Tennessee, where his first four novels are set. By 1965, he began to attract international critical attention with The Orchard Keeper, for which he won the Faulkner Award.

He won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction for The Road and the National Book Award for All the Pretty Horses. He is considered one of the four major American novelists of his time. His dense prose is categorized within the Southern Gothic genre for its stylistic complexity and the darkness and violence it presents. His books Outer Dark, Child of God, and Suttree, have been compared to the works of William Faulkner and Flannery O'Connor.

Clásico de la literatura inglesa. Si advierto que es difícil de leer aún con un buen inglés, debido a su peculiar prosa y uso de palabras arcaicas. En cuanto a la edición, no encontré ningún problema, lo único particular es el material de las hojas y la portada, pues son de un material algo áspero, la portada siendo de lo que parece ser cartón. Por eso me preocupa un poco la resistencia pero hasta ahora no he tenido problemas. Nuevamente recomendado!

La novela es notable, no es una sorperesa por que he leido la mayoría de las obras de CMC. Crítica. el valor de tapa del ejemplar es US$17,00. Si bien franqueo es bajo los libros no pagan ningún impuesto ene Argentina, por lo. que el monto final abonado supera ampliamente su valor real. Es un abuso.
