Blood Meridian

I struggled with this book. I loved The Road but many words were difficult maybe because English is not my first language. So much violence... Maybe human nature but ... definitely some description of landscape are beautiful!

and just pick a sentence. You'll find something you can spend an hour with:

"There is hardly in the world a waste so barren but some creature will not cry out at night, yet here one was and they listened to their breathing in the dark and the cold and they listened to the systole of the rubymeated hearts that hung within them." (293)
