书籍简介

全书为主人公“少年”的经历，十几岁的他加入美国军事队伍，前往墨西哥，不久就遭到了印第安人的致命打击。后来他偶然加入了由罪犯、老兵和印第安人组成的赏金猎人队伍，这个队伍名义上的首领是美墨战争老兵格兰顿，实际上指点生死的是霍尔顿法官。这个猎人队伍在墨西哥境内四处猎杀印第安人，无分男女老幼。赤裸的暴力在荒野上纵横，二十八年后，全部队员都陆续消亡。

这是一部由书组成的书，文学、哲学、神学、科学、神话元素随处可见，多重维度叠加融合，为本书创造了巨大的文本容纳力和生生不息的解读可能性。

《西方正典》作者哈罗德·布鲁姆认为，“在我看来，《血色子午线》应该是美国真正的末世预言小说”。

CELEBRATING 50 YEARS OF PICADOR BOOKS

The wrath of God lies sleeping. It was hid a million years before men were and only men have power to wake it. Hell aint half full.

Set in the anarchic world opened up by America's westward expansion, Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy is an epic and potent account of the barbarous violence that man visits upon man. Through the hostile landscape of the Texas-Mexico border wanders the Kid, a fourteen year-old Tennessean who is quickly swept up in the relentless tide of blood. But the apparent chaos is not without its order: while Americans hunt Indians - collecting scalps as their bloody trophies - they too are stalked as prey.

Since its first publication in 1985, Blood Meridian has been read as both a brilliant subversion of the Western novel and a blazing example of that form. Powerful, mesmerizing and savagely beautiful, it is established as one of the most important works in American fiction of the last century.

Part of the Picador Collection, a new series showcasing the best of modern literature.
