I second this, CM is an incredible storyteller. Blood Meridian is one of my favorite novels & made me want to write.

I cannot fathom how people enjoy that book. I appreciate the writing (and love other CM books) but Blood Meridian felt like a gratuitous ordeal to me. I tried watching lit professors lecture about it too but I still just don’t get it.
