Pairs well with Empire of the Summer Moon if you’re not well read on Indians native to the Texas region of the US in the 19th century

It’s solid so far. *Spoiler*: still waiting for the judge to show back up since he’s the star of the book by many accounts. This may be the first book I’ve read that I can’t binge because of how often I need to pause and reread a paragraph to understand what is going on. Reading this requires patience.

Hard to read more than two chapters at a time. Not a fan of the writing style.

Getting easier to understand. McCarthy doesn’t mince words.

Nothing could have prepared me for how difficult the prose and the lack of quotation marks make this book to read.
