Just saw it reported. It's crazy how many significant arts and culture figures we have been losing in the last couple months. He was one of the most important American writers of the last half of the 20th century. Interesting that a film adaptation of his best work (IMHO) "Blood Meridian" seems to finally be getting off the ground after countless failed attempts.
I loved the Road and Blood Meridian was terrific.
Just finished Blood Meridian. Man he could f'n write.
I wonder if this could ever be a movie, seems like the sadistic behavior of Judge Holden probably cannot be brought to life.

I need to read the this again and The Road again.
Haven't read No Country for Old Men not have watched the movie, of course.
