Head over to Flavorwire.com to have a look at some illus­tra­tions for Cor­mac McCarthy’s Blood Meridian;

Draw­ing com­par­is­ons to both Dante’s Inferno and Her­man Melville’s Moby Dick, Cor­mac McCarthy’sBlood Meridian is a work of genu­ine mad­ness, and one of the most viol­ent books in con­tem­por­ary lit­er­at­ure. Zak Smith (who pre­vi­ously illus­trated each page of Gravity’s Rain­bow), and five other artists (Sean McCarthy, John Mejias, Craig Taylor, Shawn Cheng, and Matt Wiegle) have taken on the daunt­ing task of illus­trat­ing every page of the grizzly tale. The styles range from haunt­ingly vivid to extremely abstract, each image com­ple­men­ted with a quote from the source mater­ial that served as its inspiration.
