An epic novel of the violence and depravity that attended America's westward expansion, Blood Meridianbrilliantly 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.

读后感

和水浒传比，这里的血腥暴力描写算个毛啊。 不就是个死婴之树吗，有李逵活剐黄文炳震撼吗，剥头皮算个屁，孙二娘人肉包子铺分分钟秒之，美国佬这么多死法也不如涌金门张顺被射成刺猬让人印象深。 霍尔顿也是图样，解说一样叨逼叨逼半天才动手，多low啊，孝义黑三郎害人的时候哪...  

丰富的隐喻、借指和意象，催生大量解读与诠释文献，从诸学科的角度将小说的含义挖了个底朝天。诠释自然有助于理解每个意指的独立含义，让小说呈现出丰富的口味；但以一个外行人的角度来看，作者的笔法与其说是鼓励解析的，毋宁说是“反诠释”的，亦即，尽管作者精心设置了各种...  

说起《血色子午线》的出版，实在一波三折。拿到版权，是2010年初的事，签好翻译合同，是在年中。然后译者出国、生子，拖稿拖稿再拖稿。然后彻底失去联系。直到2012年初，我迫不得已动用微博的强大力量，才把译者从茫茫人海中挖了出来，同时还招致诸多海外同胞的痛斥，说我暴露...  

WHY <B.M> IS A HARD READ FOR MANY READERS,INCLUDING LITERARY CRITICS LIKE HAROLD BLOOM? BECAUSE 1 MODERN CULTURE BREEDS NO UNDERSTANDING FOR HISTORICAL TRUTHS,AMONG WHICH BLOOD AND TIME ARE TURNED INTO SOMETHING TO BE FEARED. 2 THE LANGUAGE IS DIFFICULT...  

用户评价

在惊叹这部绝世佳作的伟大同时，不得不感慨小说的阅读难度。难，真的难，难得让你肃然起敬。这不是我第一次读Cormac McCarthy 的作品，但是在文字上The Road 比起Blood Meridian 完全不在一个层面。小说只有337页，但那是怎么样的337页只有那些坚持到底的读者才能够体会。这是一本需要你全情投入的书，看惯了通俗小说的读者需要花很长时间才能适应Mccarthy 的写作风格，你希望自己是拉丁语专业的，地理专业的，历史专业的，甚至是植物学专业的。可以套用这么一句话，我读过两种类型的书，一种是Blood Meridian，剩下的是另一种。

一场旷日持久的阅读。McCarthy怎么可以用寥寥数笔就把这乱世中人性、理性、神性的毁灭描写得淋漓尽致，其实就算他抛弃文字的形式感也对整体的震撼性毫无影响。

特别好

建议和同一作者的“No Country for Old Men”一起看。
