Blood Meridian

Can't say, because I've never read ATPH.  BM is pretty bleak, though, so if you're looking that wackiness of a Pynchon-type novelist, Blood Meridian ain't it . . .


-------------- Original message -------------- 
I have never head BM because I thought ALL THE PRETTY HORSES was one of the most overrated and overwrought books I'd ever read.  I thought that book was somewhat ridiculous ode to the homoerotic power of horses/men out on the open plain.  I couldn't relate to it at all.  And the total lack of humor kind of got to me too.

Would I like BM more than ATPH?
