Damn thats really what I needed to hear, thank you bro. I haven't been cognitively challenged by a book in a long while. So reading BM of course what strikes me first is all it's various idiosyncrasies, more so than the other of Mccarthy's work like everything post no country for old men. Especially the vernacular as i said. The main reason I wanted to read this book besides being a fan of the author was because I was looking for a work that would heavily disturb me, and I heard the subject matter of this book along with the character of judge holden would do it, so naturally I was inclined. It's a sort of trait I have to hyper analyze every book I read or every film I watch while enjoying it, and the sort of barrier that prevents me from doing so with this work is what threw me off, it's been a long time since I've just tried to take something in for what it is without deep deliberation, which is something im going to have to relearn as I continue reading.
