Right on, girl! For instance... I've just read Cormac McCarthy's "Cities of the Plain," and found it breathtaking. Anyone want to talk about it?

I love McCarthy. Cities of the Plain was good, but the best of the trilogy was The Crossing, IMHO.

Also IMHO, Blood Meridian is on a completely different level from anything in the Border Trilogy. It's just a masterpiece.

I'm now reading "Blood Meridian" and am finding it somewhat horrifying - have just covered the Indian massacre. But I can't put it down. Somehow it's clean in its brutality.
