Regarded by many as one of America's finest-living writers, Cormac
McCarthy has produced some of the most compelling novels of the
last 40 years. Through the increasing number of cinematic
adaptations of his work, including the Oscar-winning No Country for
Old Men, and the Pulitzer Prize for The Road, McCarthy is entering
the mainstream of cultural consciousness, both in the United States
and abroad. In Adventures in Reading Cormac McCarthy, Peter Josyph
considers, at length, the author's two masterworks Blood Meridian
and Suttree, as well as the novel and film of All the Pretty
Horses, McCarthy's play The Stonemason, and his film The Gardener's
Son. The book also includes extended conversations with critic
Harold Bloom about Blood Meridian; novelist and poet Robert Morgan
about The Gardener's Son; critic Rick Wallach about Blood Meridian;
and Oscar-winning screenwriter Ted Tally about his film adaptation
of All the Pretty Horses. Drawing on multiple resources of an
unconventional nature, this book examines McCarthy's work from
original and sometimes provocative perspectives. Proposing a new
notion of criticism, Adventures in Reading Cormac McCarthy will
become a useful tool for critics, students, and general readers
about one of the great literary talents of the day.
