"It makes no difference what men think of war, said the Judge. War endures. As well ask men what they think of stone. War was always here. Before man was, war waited for him. The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner. That is the way it was and will be. That way and not some other way."

— Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian

Please check out Constantin von Hoffmeister's (@constantinvonh) exquisitely crafted tribute to the recently departed legendary novelist, Cormac McCarthy, published by @ArktosJournal below.

McCarthy was a Pulitzer Prize winner who wrote a dozen novels, including my personal favorite piece of nonfiction, Blood Meridian, two plays, several screenplays, and a number of other short stories.

In my view, McCarthy stands as America's greatest novelist since William Faulkner. His writing style possessed a profound richness and a darkly evocative quality. McCarthy was celebrated for his minimalist and poetic prose, deftly weaving together vibrant imagery with a concise and stripped-down narrative structure. His sentences, often intricate and remarkably lengthy, showcased unconventional punctuation or a purposeful omission thereof, while his dialogue flowed without the use of quotation marks.

McCarthy's literary works often immersed readers in narratives infused with brutal violence and dark, macabre horror, exploring themes set in the American frontier and post-apocalyptic landscapes. Despite his captivating storytelling, McCarthy led a reclusive life, keeping himself at a distance from the public eye until his passing in June of 2023.

In short, he was a distinctly American writer, a true literary titan whose caliber is unlikely to be matched anytime soon. As such, I wholeheartedly encourage everyone to explore his extensive body of work and be awe-inspired by his remarkable contributions to the Western literary tradition.
