This week, I sat down with Israel Calera. Iz is an artist and designer from Rio Grande Valley on the US/Texas border, the setting of much of Blood Meridian.
An original illustration of Cormac McCarthy by Iz
He currently resides here in Abu Dhabi and he (and his extremely loud cat Winky) joined us to talk about Blood Meridian, the 1984 western novel from Cormac McCarthy.
This episode is an outgrowth of a series of conversations in Takes & Typos that culminated here.
