  • Do you mean that it helped you cope with the flipside of joy and fear that comes with having a child?

    I never thought about it that way, but yeah, I think you hit the nail on the head. It definitely helped me cope with the mix of emotions that come with being a parent. It taught me the importance of being a selfless and supportive provider for my child, and the challenges that come with making tough decisions for their well-being. Overall, it showed me what it truly means to be a father.

    Oh, thanks for the heads up! I’ve been really into PKD lately, but after hearing this news, I might need to work my way back through McCarthy. I haven’t heard of LitCharts before, but I might have to give it a try. I tried reading Gravity’s Rainbow and basically gave up. This might’ve saved me.


  • In my 30s, I came across Cormac’s writing and was immediately drawn to his style. The Road, in particular, resonated with me after just having my son. Someone recommended it to me, and it just so happened to be shortly after my son was born, and I think it had a significant impact on the way I parent and interact with my children.

    I’ve had Blood Meridian on my Kindle for a while now, but haven’t had the chance to read it yet. After hearing this news, I think I’ll make it my next read.

    Either way, you will be missed and thank you for staying with it even when you were destitute.

    Well. Said.
