His writing really perplexes me so much there’s something about it I cannot really express and I don’t even know if I like it. And like, narratively. What is wrong with this man? The protagonist died in his sleep, naked, and we aren’t even told how unless I’m stupid but sometimes Cormac elaborates on something infinitesimal for a whole page and sometimes he just says “a day passed and nothing happened”

I like the book most when the camp is around a fire. Also, how did he lob a head off with one stroke of a Bowie knife. That man has super powers or that knife is divine.

The use of language in this book and others by McCarthy really is astounding
I mean all language but especially English
