No Country for Old Men
by Cormac McCarthy

medium-paced
I know McCarthy gets compared to Faulkner more but I really like his similarities to Hemingway. The beginning of this book describes simple actions to construct a protagonist and antagonist that fit with all their actions until the end of the book. Neither changes as they're incapable but the witness to their interactions is fundamentally altered. Brilliant.
If i were the editor I probably would have suggested ending the book 30 pages earlier and then I imagine McCarthy would explain to my why I'm wrong. But I don't have him to explain it to me so I'll have to stick to that opinion for now.
