I would not classify Cormac McCarthy as a flaming liberal. He’s the closest we’ve come to Melville in quite some time.

Since Nabokov anyway.

LOL!

I think you have to be born an American and not have your wife do the translations into english to be in Melville’s class.

In all seriousness, McCarthy is good. It break my heart that hacks like the Coen Bros. are doing one of his books.
