Fiction | Historical
An epic novel of the violence and depravity that attended
America's westward expansion, Blood Meridian
brilliantly subverts the conventions of the Western novel
and the mythology of the "wild west." Based on historical
events that took place on the Texas-Mexico border in the
1850s, it traces the fortunes of the Kid, a
fourteen-year-old Tennesseean who stumbles into the
nightmarish world where Indians are being murdered and the
market for their scalps is thriving.
