A powerful, dramatic playfrom the bestselling author of No Country for Old Men and The Road
Cormac McCarthy was the author of many acclaimed novels, including Blood Meridian, Child of God and The Passenger. Among his honours are the National Book Award, the National Book Critics Circle Award and the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction. His works adapted to film include All the Pretty Horses, The Road and No Country for Old Men – the latter film receiving four Academy Awards, including the award for Best Picture. McCarthy died in 2023 in Santa Fe, NM at the age of 89.
Expertly constructed and limpidly written, the play triumphs in its
presentation of Papaw, whose earthy wisdom McCarthy makes
altogether credible.
*Chicago Tribune*
Mr McCarthy has the best kind of Southern style, one that fuses
risky eloquence, intricate rhythms and dead-to-rights accuracy.
*New York Times*
McCarthy is a born storyteller, a writer of natural, impeccable
dialogue, a literary child of Faulkner.
