What am I in for?
I would say its profoundly disturbing and gorgeously rendered. . . .the most accessible of all his works." --Me
is that based on the movie?
Yes man
The movie is based on the book
then its good
You're in for a lot of run-on sentences, sad feels, and lack of closure. Better than the movie imo.
>I'm getting too old for this shit, this really has become no country for old men
Jesus fucking Christ McCarthy
Get ready for violence. Uncomfortable violence.
Although I'd argue that Blood Meridian was way more harsh. Shit, I couldn't even read more than a few chapters of that book.
go to bed, Harold
McCarthy's attempt at seeming less pretentious.
airport-tier fiction
I'm 40 pages in and already know its gunna be a wild ride
Read the Yeats poem first
A story that feels like a nightmare.
I liked it more than the movie.
>come on, kid, it's time to hit The Road again
For fucks sake
What of his other works would Veeky Forums recommend?
The Road.
It's his best work, tbhwyfbiwctncfomiafb
outer dark is good
Was Sugar autistic?
No, he was the ultimate badass.
>implying autists can't be badass
all the pretty horses
You really might as well just watch the movie, it's great. It won lots of awards for a reason.
The book itself was originally conceived by McCarthy as a screenplay, he only turned it into a novel after no studio initially showed any interest.
DELET THIS
REEEEEEEEEEEEE
>That chapter where the 80 year old got barred from the Willie Nelson concert
>I want them all, All The Pretty Horses.
wow
>it was very dark outside - an outer dark, if you will
What a mediocre hack
The lest impressive work of his I read. Still good.
He definitely name-drops in that book like six times but it's always really well done
>Corncob Tortillas YeCarthy
Suttree
This.
>>implying autists can't be badass
>elliott roger
>badass
This
This. Child of God, Blood Meridian, The Road. Those are all Ive read of him. I havent read NCFOM or Suttree yet. I hear Suttree would be in second place as his magnum opus.
>and and and, and and and, and and
That pedantic little shit? Badass?
