Rereading McCarthy after reading better authors like Henry James and Marcel Proust, and it becomes obvious McCarthy was bitter he couldn't reach the heights of literary realism and domestic fiction.
>>24958350Is this best deptiction of the judge yet?
>>24958350I find the style of McCarthy very interesting, he can sure set a mood with his semi mystical thesaurus paragraphs but it ultimately seems to lack depth. It's like there's nothing really underneath this grand show-no master prosaics, no deeper understanding of the human condition, no profound spiritual realisations. He throws a few dramatic cliches about war and violence at you in an attempt to pose depth and it certainly works for normies but for anybody learned... I found myself awandering past the treeline tripping amongst quarry
>>24958938>He throws a few dramatic cliches about war and violence at you in an attempt to pose depth and it certainly works for normies but for anybody learnedWhy are you pretending to have read him, ESL?
>>24958938>It's like there's nothing really underneath this grand show-no master prosaics, no deeper understanding of the human condition, no profound spiritual realisationsYou're too much of a midwit and need it spoonfed, but all of that is present. The narrator never speaks on it (but it is evident in the narration or by the narration to any intelligent and discerning reader), but he places many a characters that can carry these ideas directly in long socratic dialogues. Experience of the world and interpretation of the world co-exist. How and if they overlap is for the reader to figure.You're just not used to this sort of presentation, having only dealt with the cliches of long religious debates or 1st person monologues. These are opinionated and immediate, requiring little cognition. Mccarthy's expression makes a grander statement than what each individual conversation can carry.
>>24958938You're right
>>24958350Still less bitter than assblasted Jamesfags and proustfags
>>24958938>>24958963Samefag
>>24958938You're clearly posing. Your critiques are in line with what are most normies' problems with McCarthy.
Shallow and juvenile nihilism propped up by a stylistic gimmick. Anybody worth anything will have outgrown it by 20. Basically Game of Thrones for people who can read.
>>24959069Stop being so butthurt, ESL.
>>24959071This one is either worthless or a child. I suspect the prior.
>>24959099You're a retarded ESL. None of your ad-hominems are worth shit.
>>24959117Neither of those things are true and your favourite book is essentially capeshit for people who think they're too smart for capeshit, but tell yourself whatever you need to lol. It's extremely obvious that you're just trying to convince yourself.
>>24958975Nope, I'm just not impressed by McCarthy philosophy and his lack of human insight
>>24959130It's extremely obvious that you're just a retarded ESL mad at McCarthy being a beloved American writer. You haven't even read him ffs lol. Who the fuck would believe you?
>>24959138You don't even know what his philosophy is beyond the sophomorish interpretation that "world is le violent". You should be more humble and less arrogant about your rather subpar intelligence.
>>24959130>It's extremely obvious that you're just trying to convince yourself.Said the retarded poser kek.
>>24959130mad beaner lol
>>24959140A good third of the posts in this thread are just you screaming ESL! ESL! like some woman on twitter going off on incels, and you're clearly malding beyond all belief right now. This is why I say it's obvious you're just trying to convince yourself, looking for a handy shorthand excuse to dismiss people criticising babby's first literary novel to spare yourself a bruised ego. Like I said, tell yourself whatever you have to lol
>>24959154See above.>>24959147This one I like. You are my friend. :)
>>24959156See above>>24959154LOL. Seethe harder, retarded ESL. The book is way beyond you. If you ever even read it, that is. All this waffle to protect your bruised ego about being found out as a low IQ retard... sad!
>>24959165Aww, he's even parroting my phrases now lmao. You wouldn't be this mad if I weren't telling the truth.
>all these posters who can barely write in proper English trying to criticize BMNothing screams 'midwit' more than that. Wait till all the limpwristed faggots find out that violence is an indelible part of the human condition.
>>24959165>LOL. Seethe harder, retarded ESL. The book is way beyond you. If you ever even read it, that is. All this waffle to protect your bruised ego about being found out as a low IQ retard... sad!
>>24959184>Nothing screams 'midwit' more than that. Wait till all the limpwristed faggots find out that violence is an indelible part of the human condition.
>>24959184I found that out when I was about 13. It's not much of an insight.
>>24959146I actually do. If you knew anything about fiction you'd realize that relying on ideology to drive structure and content is hack shit anyway. Assigning to different characters to represent different parts of an idea like he does in BM is babby putting pegs in holes tier
>>24959176>>24959185Your phrases? these?>criticising babby's first literary novel to spare yourself a bruised egoLmao. It's been obvious for multiple threads now. You're a goddamn spic, buddy. No one's fooled. You have been seething and crying like a manchild because an American novel is super popular on the board. You're an embarrassment. Bruised ego is not your "phrase", nor am I retarded like you to completely butcher the grammar.Pic related.
>>24959188>>24959185>fat manchild is mad that people like a book because the writer wasn't a loser like himLose weight, retard
>>24959195>Lmao. It's been obvious for multiple threads now. You're a goddamn spic, buddy. No one's fooled.

>>24959194>Assigning to different characters to represent different parts of an idea like he does in BM is babby putting pegs in holes tierYou do realize people have read the book here? You can't make up bullshit and expect people to not question it. Stop being a phony and read the book before you start seething about it.
>>24959195I'm Irish, nta who posted the image, and not typically a poster in McCarthy threads. But you'll continue to believe whatever makes you comfortable. :)
>>24959207>>24959188All these people are far more respectable than a fat seething beaner who has never read the book he hates btw.>>24959209Lol sure
