McCarthy died in 2023 in Santa Fe, NM at the age of 89.Remarkable… a staggering achievement
Scotsman
His sentences have the solidity of stones and the clarity of diamonds
Financial Times
A true work of literature… If McCarthy’s goal was for these books to haunt readers long after they are set aside, then he has succeeded.
LA Review of Books
Remarkable… [<i>Stella Maris</i>] harmonises both sadly and gorgeously with its recent predecessor. Side by side, both novels affirm the extraordinary poetry and strangeness of McCarthy’s vision
Sydney Morning Herald
Like Bach’s concertos, these triumphant novels depart the realm of art and encroach upon science, aimed at some Platonic point beyond our reckoning where all spheres converge
TIME
Great additions to McCarthy's already outstanding oeuvre and proof that the mind of one of our greatest living writers is as sharp as it has ever been.
