"…invaluable for gathering out-of-the-way or ephemeral comment from TV and radio interviews…the web…[and] literary reviews." -- The Times Higher Education Supplement, May 31, 2002
From the Publisher
This is an excellent guide to Cormac McCarthy’s prize-winning novel. It features a biography of the author, a full-length analysis of the novel, and a great deal more. If you’re studying this novel, reading it for your book club, or if you simply want to know more about it, you’ll find this guide informative and helpful.

Customer Reviews
excellent insight
though need to get out the dictionary sometimes:
mythopoetic gestures, profundity, epitome....
this is really excellent; looking forward to rereading the 20 cent copy of all the preety horses i just ordered with my girlfriend and this book's insights into this great writer (my favorite)
