A collection of essays on Cormac McCarthy’s work in his memory. I found several of his books so riveting that I read them through the night hours, and the feelings and images of beauty, horror, and loneliness have stayed with me. They included The Border Trilogy, especially The Crossing, Blood Meridian, The Road, & The Sunset Limited.

Cormac McCarthy
La giuria del premio Nobel ha una straordinaria pazienza. Attende pazientemente che muoiano tutti gli esponenti di una tradizione narrativa eccezionale come quella statunitense, per non essere costretta ad attribuire il premio a uno di loro. Così sono andati via Philip Roth e Cormac McCarthy, mentre gli svedesi, non volendo scegliere tra gli autori americani, hanno preferito regalare il Nobel a…

The Road by Cormac McCarthy #5 of 2023 5 stars . A reread of this in preparation to teach it again, and it’s still one of the most poignant and moving stories I’ve read. A father and son trudge the wasteland of a destroyed world, heading south. For those who like: Slow, meandering stories; Crying like a child at the uncaring nature of the world; The constant presence of death; Gutted babies on spits; Cannibalism. . Please also enjoy my heavily scrawled and tabbed copy . #theroad #cormacmccarthy #minimonotonebookclub #booksivereadin2023 #booksivedrawnim2023 #booksreillustrated #bookstagram #houlart #houl https://www.instagram.com/p/CpCUhV-BwIk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The Passenger by Cormac McCarthy 4 stars . A beautiful yet unfulfilling novel. I wasn’t sure I was reading the right novel at first and had to double check, but once the incestuous relationship between brother and sister was introduced, I knew I had the right author. Good old McCarthy. I love the way McCarthy writes but felt like there was something hiding beneath the surface that I just couldn’t get to it, and I’m not sure I will. The whole novel just felt like a series of conversations with different eccentric characters used as a means for McCarthy to air a bunch of personal concerns, including a rather convincing conspiracy about who was really responsible for JFKs death. Perhaps this is just another book that’s too smart for me but I’ve been made to feel dumb in worse ways so im not too bothered . #thepassenger #cormacmccarthy #minimonotonebookclub #booksivereadin2022 #booksivedrawnin2022 #booksreillustrated #bookstagram #houlart #houl https://www.instagram.com/p/CnLxvr_hFzj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

El regocijo profundo de volver a leer a #cormacmccarthy . Un señor de las historias de frontera, los caminos polvorientos, las rutas escarpadas, las fogatas que defienden de la intemperie nocturna y las palabras precisas. Uno de mis escritores favoritos, que se merece el Nobel todos los años. Heredero de Faulkner y Sam Peckinpah y algún profeta veterotestamentario. En fin, aquí rebotando de felicidad porque después de años tengo 620 páginas de Cormac McCarthy por leer 😻🤓🎉 #autoregalo (en Santiago, Chile) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cmc8xUsOiLD/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

“Grief is the stuff of life. A life without grief is no life at all. But regret is a prison. Some part of you which you deeply value lies forever impaled at a crossroads you can no longer find and never forget.” Cormac McCarthy, The Passenger “The world has created no living thing that it does not intend to destroy.” Cormac McCarthy, Stella Maris #cormacmccarthy #bookstagram #literature #thepassenger #stellamaris #cormacmccarthyquote #bookpic https://www.instagram.com/p/CmCUDZSOw6q/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
