As f...I thought James showed remarkable restraint.<br /><br />As for Cormac, I love his honesty. When you reach that level you can just say whatever the hell you want. So often, writers are told we have to know everything about our characters, setting, motivations, backstory, etc. even though most of that stuff doesn't make it into the manuscript. The fact that McCarthy doesn't care what caused his apocalyptic world and that he thinks it doesn't matter (and it doesn't) is refreshingly honest.Paul Michael Murphyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17318098111985714443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7004461851315310562.post-39773968503986091282009-12-30T10:16:28.763-05:002009-12-30T10:16:28.763-05:00Thanks for the time suck this morning!

I wish all reviewers put that much thought into a book review--we would have much more intelligent discussions around plots and characters and merit. And I thought that Kennedy (hi!) did a fantastic job of respecting what she had to say. It seemed like she ended up not really able to dislike the book.
