Najzabawniejsza i najsmutniejsza powieść McCarthy’ego.

Pośród rozbitków życiowych i wyrzutków społecznych rozmaitego sortu – pijaków, prostytutek, zbirów, naciągaczy i pospolitych złodziejaszków, ślepców i paralityków, grabarzy, a także pewnej wiedźmy – żyje sobie pewien rybak, Cornelius Suttree. Dla slumsów miasta Knoxville porzucił rodzinę, dostatek i wszelkie wygody. Zamieszkał na starej zdezelowanej łodzi, pod mostem, owianym złą sławą ostatniej trampoliny topielców.

I aint no infidel. Dont pay no mind to what they say.No.I always figured they was a God.Yes.I just never did like him.This is a world of Biblical proportions and ancient language; prose that tumbles, lurches, and forks like tributaries of the river where Suttree makes his home, shot through with a ...

Before 'The Road' and 'No Country For Old Men' there was....well this. McCarthy does Southern Gothic and probably wishes he hadn't because it doesn't fit at all with the tough Western image.
