Cormac McCarthy's Last Outlaws

<p> This work is the most extensive examination to date of the Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist's collaboration with director Ridley Scott on realizing McCarthy's controversial screenplay <I>The Counselor</I> and it takes an equally close look at McCarthy's final masterwork <I>The Passenger</I>. Having interpreted in music painting film lectures and three previous books the man he calls our Rhode Island Shakespeare the author draws on a wide range of sources from theatre cinema philosophy and literature for an unsparing critique of what he calls Late McCarthy and of trends in recent Cormac McCarthy criticism.</p>
