O livro que eu recomendo pra essa #quartacapa é um dos mais aterrorizantes que surgiu na literatura norte-americana, escrito por ele mesmo, Comarc McCarth, sim eu falo de Meridiano de sangue.

Primeiramente:
Eu conheci graças a um audiobook e depois criei coragem pra ler todo, me deixou perturbado por dias, uma das melhores obras literárias que eu já consumi, mas não é o meu livro favorito do McCarthy.

"His mother dead these fourteen years did incubate in her own bosom the creature who would carry her off."

What killed the mother?

Every review in which this question has been answered has given the same answer. Three out of three major large language model chatbots have done their jobs and reproduced this answer, with only two allowing me to correct them, as Gemini is immune to logic and consistency.

Нарешті взявся за "Кривавий меридіан".

І одразу ділюся цитатою з монологу одного з героїв:

"У Мексиці нема уряду. Чорт забирай, у Мексиці і Бога нема. І ніколи не буде. Ми маємо справу з народом, що явно не спроможний дати собі раду. А чи знаєш ти, що буває з народом, який не може дати собі раду? Саме так. Приходять інші й ним урядують.".

Нічого не нагадує?

Читання буде емоційним, я вже бачу.

I was just starting this when the sad news of #CormacMcCarthy’s passing broke.

I enjoy all his work & return to it often, but #BloodMeridian is his masterpiece - poetic, savage, & profound. I’ve read this a few times now & there are images I just cannot shake. And the Judge is perhaps his most compelling and inscrutable antagonist.

The final third through to it’s devastating conclusion is just masterful. Perfect even. & finishing it just now, man, it still hits.
