*Premio Pulitzer 2007 por La carretera*Una impresionante e imaginativa fbula moral acerca de la naturaleza de la violencia y la justicia.Las autoridades mexicanas y del estado de Texas organizan una expedicin paramilitar para acabar con el mayor nmero posible de indios. Es el Grupo Glanton, y tienen como lder espiritual al juez Holden, un ser violento y cruel. Nunca duerme, viola y asesina nios de ambos sexos y afirma que nunca morir. Todo cambia cuando los carniceros de Glanton dejan de asesinar indios y empiezan a exterminar a los mexicanos que les pagan. Se instaura as la ley de la selva, el terreno moral donde la figura del juez se convierte en una especie de dios arbitrario.Reseas:En el umbral del siglo XXI me parece la obra imaginativa ms impresionante entre todas las de los escritores estadounidenses vivos.Harold BloomEl libro se lee como una mezcla del Infierno, la Iliada y Moby Dick. Solo puedo decir que Meridiano de sangre no se parece a nada que haya ledo en los ltimos aos y me parece un logro impresionante y extraordinario.John BanvilleBasada en hechos reales y de una violencia y atrocidad insoportables, la obra maestra de Cormac McCarthy es una suerte de wstern metafsico en el que se nos obliga a contemplar la realidad del mal sin posibilidad de apartar la mirada.Eduardo Lago, Babelia
