CORMAC McCARTHY (b. 1933) is an American novelist, playwright, short-story writer, and screenwriter who is widely regarded as one of the greatest living contemporary authors. His novels about wayward characters in the rural American South and Southwest are noted for their dark violence, dense prose, and stylistic complexity. The Guardian called McCarthy "America's great poetic visionary", "the ultimate pessimist, [and] a reclusive soothsayer who makes even Hemingway look touchy-feely." He is increasingly mentioned as a candidate for the Nobel Prize in Literature, which would be a richly deserved honor.
His debut novel, THE ORCHARD KEEPER (1965), is about a Tennessee man and his two mentors. Social outcasts highlight such novels as OUTER DARK (1968), about two incestuous siblings; CHILD OF GOD (1974), about a lonely man’s descent into depravity; and SUTTREE (1979), about a man who overcomes his fixation on death. BLOOD MERIDIAN (1985), a violent frontier tale, initially received a lukewarm critical and commercial reception but is now regarded as his masterpiece. It tells the story of 14-year-old boy who joins a gang of outlaws hunting Native Americans along the U.S.-Mexico border in the 1840s. The group is headed by a malevolent figure called the Judge, who leads the gang through a series of staggeringly amoral actions, through which McCarthy explores the nature of good and evil.
McCarthy achieved popular fame with ALL THE PRETTY HORSES (1992), winner of the National Book Award and National Book Critics Circle Award. It is the first volume of "The Border Trilogy" and is the coming-of-age story of John Grady Cole, a Texan who travels to Mexico. The second instalment, THE CROSSING (1994), set before and during World War II, follows the picaresque adventures of the brothers Billy and Boyd Parham and centres around three round-trip passages that Billy makes between southwestern New Mexico and Mexico. The trilogy concludes with CITIES OF THE PLAIN (1998), which interweaves the lives of John Grady Cole and Billy Parham through their employment on a ranch in New Mexico.
McCarthy’s later works include NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN (2005), a bloody modern western that opens with a drug deal gone bad, and the post-apocalyptic THE ROAD (2006), which won the Pulitzer Prize and relates a father and son's struggle to survive after a disaster has all but destroyed the United States. In addition, he has written two plays — THE STONEMASON (2001), about the tribulations of a Southern black family, and THE SUNSET LIMITED (2006), suggestively subtitled "a novel in dramatic form" — and two screenplays: THE GARDENER'S SON (1996), based on a strange 1876 murder in Graniteville, South Carolina, and THE COUNSELOR (2013), a drama about drug trafficking. This torrent also includes a number of uncollected short stories.
McCarthy has an aversion to other writers, preferring the company of scientists. He currently works with the Santa Fe Institute, a multidisciplinary research center, where he published "The Kekulé Problem" (2017), an essay exploring the human subconscious and the origin of language. A new novel, THE PASSENGER, was announced in 2015 and described as "a mathematical [and] analytical novel" influenced by his time at the SFI, but it is yet to be released. So we wait.
