REST IN PEACE: Cormac McCarthy, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of 'The Road' and 'No Country for Old Men,' has died. He was 89.
the Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist who in prose both dense and brittle took readers from the southern Appalachians to the desert Southwest in such novels as "The Road," "Blood Meridian" and "All the Pretty Horses," died Tuesday. He was 89.Writer Cormac McCarthy attends the HBO Films & The Cinema Society screening of"Sunset Limited" after party at Porter House on February 1, 2011 in New York City.
"I just had this image of these fires up on the hill ... and I thought a lot about my little boy," he said."You would like for the people that would appreciate the book to read it. But, as far as many, many people reading it, so what?" he said. In 2022, Knopf made the startling announcement that it would release McCarthy’s first work in more than 15 years, a pair of connected novels he had referred to in the past:narratives on a pair of mutually obsessed siblings and the legacy of their father, a physicist who had worked on atomic technology. "Stella Maris" was notable, in part, because it centered on a female character, an acknowledged weakness of McCarthy’s.
McCarthy said he was always lucky. He recalled living in a shack in Tennessee and running out of toothpaste, then going out and finding a toothpaste sample in the mailbox.
