Day 274
Wednesday, June 06, 2007
Cormac McCarthy--the now-Pulitzer winner that I spent too much time 'blogging about--gave his first television interview this past Tuesday. To Oprah Winfrey.
Winfrey picked McCarthy's most recent novel the Road as a recent Oprah's Book Club selection. Which is good, since now tons of people are buying it. It's a book people should buy, and love and cherish.
I didn't catch McCarthy's interview, but reading the blurbs in the article linked above...I'm not surprised. The man is infamously reclusive, though, so it's good he came out of his shell. (He's 73 and--if my memory serves me well--he's only give two print interviews ever too in his 40-some year writing career.)
