I've read two of his novels - The Road and Blood Meridian. I liked both of them, and woud be happy to join in on the discussion. I'd like to nominate No Country for Old Men, though I'd give any of them a go.
I nominate Charly Cormac for assistance at the department of termination. An LOL for Vonnegut in 2brn2b.
I reckon you should write to him directly. Perhaps you could elicit as sparse a style as he displays in his writing.Quote:

You can now vote for the Cormac McCarthy book you would like to read in April.
I chose All the Pretty Horses, since I've read the other two. But I would like to add how outstanding Blood Meridian is!
I was so disappointed with this movie that I don't think I will have the desire to read the book.
Blood Meridian is great. We had quite a good discussion about it following a review of the book. I voted for No Country for Old Men. I've started reading it, and I'm finding it to be very good with some interesting themes. On the strength of The Road, Blood Meridian and No Country for Old Men, I think I'd give any of his books a go.
I think I'm going to read All the Pretty Horses.
Looking forward to reading the first of the Border Trilogy this month!
Going once...
I'm on standby with my copy of All the Pretty Horses!
