2nd and later printings. By Cormac McCarthy. Introduction by Harold Bloom. Widely considered one the finest novels by a living writer, this is an epic tale of the violence and depravity that attended America's westward expansion, brilliantly subverting 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, Blood Meridian traces the fortune of the Kid, a fourteen-year-old Tennessean who stumbles into a nightmare where Indians are being murdered and the market for their scalps is thriving. Embodying and seeming to preside over this world is the diabolical Judge Holden, one of the most unforgettable characters in American fiction. Hardcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 384 pages, Text Only. Cover price $26.00.
