Cormac McCarthy's significance in the field of contemporary
American fiction is enormous. Harold Bloom has called him one of
the greatest living American writers, and named him one of the
three most important authors of the 20th century. His impact has
been even greater in the 21st century. He won the American Book
Award for All the Pretty Horses (1991), the Pulitzer Prize for The
Road (2006), and his influence on contemporary American literature
has been compared to that of Herman Melville, William Faulkner, and
Ernest Hemingway, while The Guardian likened the language of The
Road to that ofBeckett and Yeats. This collection of new critical
perspectives on three of McCarthy's most widely studied novels -
All the Pretty Horses, No Country for Old Men and The Road -
provides a wide-ranging introduction to the different
interpretations of his work. Introductions to each set of essays
encourage readers to see connections and contrasts between
different approaches and comprehensive Further Reading will help
students to take their study further.
