Myth, legend, dust: Critical Responses to Cormac McCarthy

Myth, legend, dust: Critical Responses to Cormac McCarthy by Wallach, Rick. Paperback edition. ISBN: 9780719059483.

For almost three decades, Cormac McCarthy solidified his reputation as an American "writers writer" with remarkable novels such as his Appalachian Tales, The Orchard Keeper, Outer Dark, Child of God, Suttree, and his terrifying Western masterpiece, Blood Meridian. Then, with the publication of All the Pretty Horses, the first work of his celebrated Border Trilogy in 1992, McCarthys popularity exploded on to a world stage. As his reputation burgeoned with the publications of The Crossing and Cities of the Plain, the critical response to McCarthy has grown apace.
