Good lad.

Stop not eating beans.

How do I write like him? I'm Canadian, maybe I should visit one of the southern states for inspiration?

Is Cormac McCarthy really fucking hard to read for someone that only learned English as his second language? I've read books from Oscar Wilde, Salinger or Joseph Conrad in the original language and rarely needed to look up a word and it felt just like reading a translation. I'm trying Blood Meridian but it is absolutely killing me, can barely make out one sentence without having to look up, all the words are so archaic. Should I just /give up/ and buy the translation?

Haven't seen any thread about the The Passenger reading being leakd, despite the video being posted so long ago.I guess better sooner than later.
But at any rate, what do you think about it?
I feel like it's too talktive like his failed film ,or blood meridian's preachings for that matter. Too pretentious, and with little or none of the descriptions he is so praised about.

What was the last Cormac McCarthy book you read?

Currently finishing up The Road, the one I haven't read and it's pretty damn good so far.

Hi friends, I would like to read more Cormac McCarthy. I have read Blood Meridian and No Country for Old Men. Which of his works should I read next? What do you think of him as a writer? I really enjoyed what I've read so far.
