Cormac McCarthy


Just finished 'The Road', which won him the Pulitzer a few years ago. Reminds me much of Hemingway's 'The Old Man and the Sea', with a little Faulkner thrown in. Read 'Blood Meridian' earlier, very dark - and 'The Cities of the Plain', just strange - but I liked the cameo that G*d has in the final chapter as a homeless wanderer the main character meets under a highway bridge. That's where I'll be looking for G*d.

Can't wait to find a few more by him.
