This collection offers a fresh approach to the work of Cormac
McCarthy, one of the most important contemporary American authors.
Essays focus on his work across the genres and/or in constellation
with other writers and artists, presenting not only a different
"angle" on the work, but setting him within a broader literary and
artistic context. Such an approach offers a view of McCarthy that
is strikingly different to previous collections that have dealt
with the work in an almost exclusively "single author" and/or
"single genre" mode. McCarthy's novels are increasingly regarded as
amongst the most rich, the most complex, and the most insightful of
all recent literary responses to prevailing conditions in both the
USA and beyond, and this collection recognizes the intertextual and
interdisciplinary nature of his work. Contributors draw back the
curtain on some of McCarthy's literary ancestors, revealing and
analyzing some of the fiction's key contemporary intertexts, and
showing a complex and previously underestimated hinterland of
influence. In addition, they look beyond the novel both to other
genres in McCarthy's oeuvre, and to the way these genres have
influenced McCarthy's writing.
