Very well put, I keep finding myself coming back "stream-of-consciousness"-y lit and post modern ramblings all the time, so I am used to it by now. I do as always find myself actively trying to string along a narrative that makes sense in my own headspace, which can be somewhat debilitating for me at times. I have a feeling Hopscotch may similar to The Savage Detectives, which I enjoyed greatly, but I'll find out soon enough. Blood Meridian to me is literally just penultimate McCarthy, everything you've seen before, in a way, done better than you have ever seen. It's so amazingly well executed. There are parts that seem like a chore or mundane, but just soak them in, because they are absolutely vital.
