Shipping
John Sepich’s Notes on Blood Meridian unlocks the brutal brilliance of Cormac McCarthy’s epic western, guiding readers through historical sources, obscure vocabulary, and the novel’s violent geography. This 2008 revised and expanded edition from the Southwestern Writers Collection Series adds fresh scholarship to a book already hailed by Blood Meridian fans and literary critics alike.
University of Texas Press packs 240 illustrated pages into a sturdy 6x9-inch trade paperback, making it an easy companion for students, book-club members, or anyone writing on McCarthy. The volume sits comfortably alongside other Wittliff Collections titles and has become a go-to reference in American literature classrooms.
This used copy shows gentle water marks on the page edges and inside rear cover, but every page turns freely—no notes, tears, or dog-ears, and it comes from a smoke-free home. The wear is cosmetic; the research value remains intact for young adults and adult readers diving into McCarthy studies.
