No. But he is a literary god.

I don't believe in god, but if god existed, there is a 99% chance that it's Cormac McCarthy.

Yeah one of the best at what he does. Amazing at describing violence and scenery. Reckon he couldn’t write a female character to save his life though. Not a knock though most men can’t write believable women and I’m not even going to get started on female authors.

No, but Pynchon is possessed by a demon.

yes

if god was red then red McCarthy would bleed until he too was red.
Then one red day he would wake red and ready to go to the window where, red and waiting, was the crimson dawn. then he would cut himself where his blood, red, ran over his hands and this would be invisible on his red shirt.
Invisible. the property of a thing that had never been. No blood on no shirt with no color as it was born into a world of only one color. Red. And at its core: a heart. But due to its shade, did not exists either.

Pynchon unironically wrote GR through some sort of automatic writing séance shit, I’m suspicious he tried to write without it, and after Vineland just didn’t cut it he went back to the demon summoning

Do you have a source for this? Is it from the guy that Pynch cucked?

>>14424633
I love the look on the guy's face. It's a good painting.

What about Outer Dark? That features a woman protagonist. A mother stripped of her child.
