The Crossing
Cormac Mccarthy

Vintage, 1995

A Haunting and Beautiful Book
I'm really not sure how to describe this book, or that it is necessary to do so. It is an adventure story that has many different sections which, in ways, don't even seem to fit together. Certainly, it is mainly about two brothers and their journey into Mexico to ...
  
  











  



  
Child of God
Cormac McCarthy

Vintage, 1993

Sick! But interesting and a dark and desperate adventure.
"Child of God" is a story of a poor, lonesome and demented redneck named Lester trying to survive in a poor redneck town. From the beginning we see that he has gotten the boot from society (be it as it may) and has been forgotten and left on his own to survive and ...

Blood Meridian: Or the Evening Redness in the West
Cormac McCarthy

Vintage, 1992

Wash The Blood From Your Hands
I read this book twice now, finishing an audio version just recently. I know I will read it again, and I know that even after that reading, I will still wonder what all I have missed in this complex and compelling read. A quick google search of the book will let you ...
  
  











  



  
Outer Dark
Cormac Mccarthy

Vintage, 1993

A gripping, taught, harrowing read
A sister gives birth to her brother's child. The brother takes the infant into the woods, where it is found by a travelling salesman. When the girl finds out about her brother's deception, she heads out to find the salesman, as her brother heads out to find her. All ...
  
  











  



  
The Border Trilogy: All the Pretty Horses, the Crossing, Cities of the Plain (Everyman's Library)
Cormac Mccarthy

Everyman's Library, 1999

the single most influential series i've read in my life
Cormac McCarthy has the amazing abilitly to envoke emotion using description of action and place. One never gets inside of his characters heads directly (at least not in this particular series) and yet it is the most emotionaly powerful series i have ever encountered. ...
  
  











  



  
Cities of the Plain
Cormac McCarthy

Vintage International, 1999

Omit epilogue
I think the epilogue adds nothing to the novel, unless somehow I missed the point entirely. C. M. has elsewhere more skillfully put forth his theme that our destinies are predetermined practically from the "big bang" and that, appearances to the contrary, we really ...
  
  











  



  
All the Pretty Horses
Cormac Mccarthy

Vintage, 1993

Definitely a Acquired Taste
I have looked at some of the reviews here, and am a bit surprised as the number of people who hated this book. It is a challenge to read, but this is no "Ulysses." The main themes can be understood with a little careful attention. Some have compared McCarthy's style to ...
  
  











  



  
Suttree
Cormac Mccarthy

Vintage, 1992

Suttree
I've just read Suttree. As did McCarthy's later book, The Road, Suttree gave me the feeling of knowing, or having known, the protagonist, and liking him very much.
  
  











  



  
Blood Meridian (Picador Books)
Cormac McCarthy

Picador, 1994

A Cormac McCarthy vocabulary quiz
As I read Blood Meridian, I jotted down words that were either unusual or new to me or familiar yet not quite recognizable. This is the case with every McCarthy book one reads - astonishment at the writer's extensive vocabulary. I've deliberately left out most of the ...
  
  











  



  
The Cormac McCarthy Value Collection: All the Pretty Horses, The Crossing, Cities of the Plain
Cormac Mccarthy

Random House Audio, 2005

excellent abridged version of McCarthy's work
Cormac McCarthy is undoubtedly one of the best American writers alive today. This is precisely why I purchased one of his works for my first venture into the "books on tape" world. I feared that hearing his works read to me my a Hollywood actor would diminish its ...
  
  











  



  
The Orchard Keeper
Cormac McCarthy

Vintage, 1993

Early McCarthy
I am informally studying Cormac having read his last works first, namely "No Place for Old Men", preceeded by the "Trilogy" and "Blood Meridian". His precise knowledge about the area and customs of his story and the minimilist language which he develops in the later ...
  
  











  



  
All the Pretty Horses
Cormac McCarthy

PICADOR (MACM), 1993

Part "High Plains Drifter" and Part "Romeo and Juliete."
Cormac McCarthy was born in Rhode island and grew up in Tennessee, but now lives in Tesuque, New Mexico. He is viewed by many as one of the more unusual and most talented of the current American writers. For example, Harold Bloom has written a number of things about ...
  
  











  



  
The Sunset Limited
Cormac McCarthy

Vintage, 2006

The Sunset Limited
I have become a devoted McCarthy fan. I believe he is one of the most gifted, talented, honest and bravest authors on the scene today. This would be a great text for any high school, or college literature course because it would stimulate great dialog and teach ...
