Cormac McCarthy is an American novelist and playwright. He has written ten novels in the Southern Gothic, western, and post-apocalyptic genres and has also written plays and screenplays. He received the Pulitzer Prize in 2007 for The Road, and his 2005 novel No Country for Old Men was adapted as a 2007 film of the same name, which won four Academy Awards, including Best Picture.
His earlier Blood Meridian (1985) was among Time Magazine's poll of 100 best English-language books published between 1925 and 2005 and he placed joint runner-up for a similar title in a poll taken in 2006 by The New York Times of the best American fiction published in the last 25 years. Literary critic Harold Bloom named him as one of the four major American novelists of his time, along with Thomas Pynchon, Don DeLillo, and Philip Roth. He is frequently compared by modern reviewers to William Faulkner.
In 2009, Cormac McCarthy won the PEN/Saul Bellow Award, a lifetime achievement award given by the PEN American Center.
A searing, postapocalyptic novel destined to become Cormac McCarthy’s masterpiece.
A father and his son walk alone through burned America. Nothing moves in the ravaged landscape save the ash on the wind. It is cold enough to crack stones, and when the snow falls it is gray. The sky is dark. Their destination is the coast, although they don’t know what, if anything, awaits them there. They have nothing; just a pistol to defend themselves against the lawless bands that stalk the road, the clothes they are wearing, a cart of scavenged food—and each other.
The Road is the profoundly moving story of a journey. It boldly imagines a future in which no hope remains, but in which the father and his son, “each the other’s world entire,” are sustained by love. Awesome in the totality of its vision, it is an unflinching meditation on the worst and the best that we are capable of: ultimate destructiveness, desperate tenacity, and the tenderness that keeps two people alive in the face of total devastation.
在 “后911”时代的今天,经济危机与恐怖袭击一再上演,末日恐慌隐伏于每个人的内心。这就像是一种黑暗,比阴霾更加浓冽、比黑色更加冷酷。而这黑暗恰恰正是美国作家科马克•麦卡锡的标志。从《边境三部曲》到《老无所依》,再到《路》,麦卡锡一路延续着某种似曾相识的荒凉...
評分“天涯远不远?” “不远!” “人就在天涯,天涯怎么会远?” ——摘自《天涯•明月•刀》 长路漫漫,人生如负重远行,而路的尽头又是如何?科马克•麦卡锡(Cormac McCarthy)的最新力作《路》(The road),以一场世纪末日来临前的惨淡景象,一对父子的求生之旅,重...
評分《長路》,是08年高安兄弟作品《二百萬奪命奇案》原作作者戈馬克麥卡錫(Cormac McCarthy)又一改編成電影的小說。閱畢本書,深覺改編成電影難拍,但無可否認是一本震撼心靈的小說,比《險路》(《二百萬奪命奇案》原作中譯名)還要懾人,也更為純粹。 小說的題材,是長久以來不斷...
評分可讀性比較差,基本上沒情節
评分麥卡锡是個很強的人。
评分海明威和福剋納的唯一繼承人,實至名歸。一條深度展現毀滅,絕望,掙紮和人性的末日之路。
评分還是不太懂教兒子的,但末日危途上,能活下來就是偉大。
评分麥卡锡不愧是深得福剋納真傳,蒼涼之感力透紙背。
