Hardback. Condition: New. Throughout a career that spanned six decades, Cormac McCarthy produced twelve novels that, while often quite different from one another, show a consistent commitment to formal experimentation motivated by a love of language and the possibilities therein.

In How Cormac Works, Hardwig suggests that McCarthy's defining attribute as an author falls not in the realm of psychology, philosophy, or history but in his experimentation with language-in the style that gives his books their atmosphere, mood, and tone. Hardwig's analysis foregrounds the ways in which McCarthy utilizes and manipulates language, how he uses it to simultaneously create and withhold meaning, draw clear images, and resist this clarity.
