Remaining on the margins of the outcast community there--a brilliantly imagined collection of eccentrics, criminals, and squatters--he rises above the physical and human squalor with detachment, humor, and dignity.

The problem is that it seems totally pointless. In the under-rated film "Leaving Las Vegas", at least we had a glimpse of where the hero's drunken abandon came from - the loss of his family, his anchor. But in "Suttree", we ended up not having any notion what the quiet despair was all about. (展开)
Blood Meridian and Suttree are twin towers of Cormac McCarthy’s work. 前者是火神般炽热、刺眼，太阳是血色的，群星是隐秘的，主人公的内心是不被描述的；后者则是水神般的湿冷、晦暗，太阳苍白而群星喧嚣，好像版本书都漂浮在他的内心世界。all in all，是否有值得生活的一生？

整本书的前60% 都在为后面的爆发做准备，阅读难度很大，故事很depressing 但是 McCarthy 真是一个出色的作家！
