I've just finished reading "Blood Meridian" by Cormac McCarthy
It's supposed to be one of those Great American Novels but it just made me feel sick... no, not sick, the feeling you get when you've just been sick and you want to throw up some more but your body won't let you, even though you're retching and retching?
That kind of sick.
I don't mind violence in media, but there has to be a balance, with this book there was absolutely none, it was like there was violence for the sake of violence, as if Cormac's only voice was to provoke a reaction.
Well, he managed it.
