Thought provoking. Writing style is good, but just felt like a Hemingway knockoff.
Really don't think this should have won the Pulitzer.
First book I've read with no chapters and no quotations for dialogue. Interesting read.

"If you died I would want to die too."
"So you could be with me?"
"Yes. So I could be with you."
"Okay."
McCarthy is so incredibly talented. This was a horrifying book. I will never be the same.
