Born in Tennessee to a father who quotes poets he can no longer name. Drifts west at fourteen into the gang. Never given a name, barely speaks, and is the only man who withholds anything from the judge.

The judge is the thesis walking around in a body. Cut him and this is a competent western about murderers; cut anyone else and the book survives.

~/the-kid⭐3:2~/john-glanton

The kid is the resistance the judge requires. His silence and his withheld mercy are the only counterweight in the novel, and the ending only lands because he refused.
