Cormac McCarthy is an American novelist and playwright. He has written ten
novels, spanning the Southern Gothic, Western, and modernist genres. He has
also written plays and screenplays. He received the Pulitzer Prize and the
James Tait Black Memorial Prize for Fiction for The Road. 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. He received a National
Book Award and National Book Critics Circle Award for his 1992 novel, All
the Pretty Horses.

His previous novel, Blood Meridian, (1985) was among Time Magazine's poll
of 100 best English-language books published between 1923 and 2005 and
placed joint runner-up 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 Don DeLillo, Thomas Pynchon and Philip Roth, calling
Blood Meridian "the greatest single book since Faulkner.s As I Lay Dying".
In 2010 The Times ranked The Road first on its list of the 100 best fiction

modern reviewers to William Faulkner. McCarthy has been increasingly
