I have very mixed opinions of McCarthy. He focuses on the grim darkness of humanity a lot. If that is what you want to hear all you have to do is turn on the news. I thought The Road was well done but super depressing. In the process of reading All The Pretty Horses and it’s tone is much more upbeat. But his style is cribed almost entirely from Hemmingway.
