Great poet.

But I've always thought about what the connection might be between the fact that his wife was so much more successful than him in his day and why his most famous poems are about murdering a female romantic partner

This is pretty off topic, but just because you mentioned auto-fellating.

I've had a lot of dreams lately about being able to suck my own dick. I'm sitting on my bed, and I think to myself, I haven't tried to blow myself in a while, might as well give it a go, not really expecting anything. But when I go for it, but penis fits easily into my mouth. I am too stunned to actually suck myself off. I think to myself, "holy shit, I have a dick in my mouth, and its MY dick!" and then I wake up.

Almost every night for the past few days. I'm not even joking.

What does this mean?

I've only read two McCarthy novels (this and The Crossing), but I kinda get the impression that, while he has one of best, and most readily identifiable, prose styles of any contemporary writer, it's almost like he isn't doing it deliberately. Like you'll get passages that are absolutely stunning, right next to undergrad-level stuff (and the descriptions of the environment except in rare cases usually belong to the latter). And the level of repetitions is p. fucking comical at times (they rode on he spat etc.), though maybe I'm missing something here.

Mind you, this book is an absolute ten. And also pretty cinematic. I don't get why all the plebby Debbies call it "unfilmable"; I think it'd make a dope movie, esp. if you can find a real good filmmaker to do it, someone who'll have respect for the source material.

>The fact you have to go onto a separate page because they didnt consider it important enough to include on the main page isn't culturally significant
