Description
Cormac McCarthy. Blood Meridian or The Evening Redness in the West. New York: Random House, [1985].8vo. Publisher's cloth-backed boards, spine lettered in gilt; original pictorial dust jacket.
FIRST EDITION of McCarthy's masterpiece, and considered one of the greatest novels of the 20th century. Harold Bloom has written: "Cormac McCarthy's Blood Meridian (1985) seems to me the authentic American apocalyptic novel, more relevant now than when it was written. The fulfilled renown of Moby-Dick and of As I Lay Dying is augmented by Blood Meridian, since Cormac McCarthy is the worthy disciple both of Melville and of Faulkner."
Condition: A particularly fresh copy in a very fine, bright dust jacket.
