"What sort of ape?" asked Stephen.
"A damned ill-conditioned sort of an ape. It had a can of ale at every pot-house on the road, and is reeling drunk. It has been offering itself to Babbington."

That's all for words I don't know from Blood Meridian. If you know any of the words I've listed in this thread then you are obliged to assist. Otherwise feel free to recommend me books with more words I am not likely to know. Real words, not Harry Potter words. Words that you can sink your brain teeth into!

Sounds like you're ready for Gene Wolfe.
