JenayRezension von Jenay

Extremely engaging and beautifully written. McCarthy understand grief on a deep level. How else could he act as poet and novelist in one with excerpts like this: “Everything uncoupled from its shoring. Unsupported in the ashen air. Sustained by a breath, trembling and brief. If only my heart were stone.” Yet even with this twisting of sentence formation and pensive thoughts, he still twists a story that can be accessible to almost anyone. Some warnings: there are horrific things that happen but nothing is described in gory detail.
