It's harsh, difficult, gorgeous, evoking Melville and Homer; it's discursive, melodious, unique, distressing, 15% too long, utterly unapologetic - I didn't really like Blood Meridian, but it's quite obviously a monumental masterpiece.
Loved it as a kid, thought it was dumb in my 20s, now I’ve come back around on this classic sci-fi emo thriller, not only did it inspire a whole raft of culture in its wake, it’s honestly pretty inspiring and touching.
