Beschreibung

Rare journal which contains the first publication of Cormac McCarthy, The Dark Waters; an excerpt from his first novel The Orchard Keeper. Octavo, original wrappers. Signed by Cormac McCarthy on the front panel. In very good condition. Rare and desirable signed, we have never seen another one. Cormac McCarthy was an American novelist and playwright. He had written twelve novels in the Southern Gothic, western, and post-apocalyptic genres and had also written plays and screenplays. He received the Pulitzer Prize in 2007 for The Road, and his 2005 novel No Country for Old Men was adapted as a 2007 film of the same name, which won four Academy Awards, including Best Picture. His earlier Blood Meridian (1985) was among Time Magazine's poll of 100 best English-language books published between 1925 and 2005, and he placed joint runner-up for a similar title in a poll taken in 2006 by The New York Times of the best American fiction published in the last 25 years. Literary critic Harold Bloom named him one of the four major American novelists of his time, along with Thomas Pynchon, Don DeLillo, and Philip Roth. He is frequently compared by modern reviewers to William Faulkner. In 2009, Cormac McCarthy won the PEN/Saul Bellow Award, a lifetime achievement award given by the PEN American Center.
