Beautiful, even if it’s a bit up it’s own ass. The characters who Billy encounters that proffer extended, unbroken streams of wisdom speak with effectively the same voice. It’s deciding if it does or does not believe in hope and some justice. Thats ok, and getting there is moving and bleak. (Perhaps three words that define every boon McCarthy has ever written.)
Not as good as the first of the Border Trilogy.

In the middle of a 15 page monologue/parable about the nature of our relationship to reality, experience, witness, whether the world exists outside of our perception, whether God knows we exist at all, and if we can bargain or impact God in anyway, why God constrains himself by his own laws and if that means anything.
Kind of exhausting at this point. Perhaps my least favorite Cormac McCarthy passage I've ever read.
