'A drought-busting, brain-vexing double act Guardian Alicia Western is the following: Twenty years old. A brilliant mathematician at the University of Chicago. And a paranoid schizophrenic who does not want to talk about her brother, Bobby. Told entirely through the transcripts of Alicias psychiatric sessions, Cormac McCarthy's Stella Maris is a profoundly moving companion to The Passenger. It is a powerful enquiry that questions our notions of God, truth, and life itself by one of Americas finest writers. Cormac McCarthy was such a virtuoso, his language was so rich and new . . . McCarthy worked close to some religious impulse, his books were terrifying and absolute. His sentences were astonishing. - Anne Enright

Recensioner i media

Remarkable a staggering achievement * Scotsman * His sentences have the solidity of stones and the clarity of diamonds * Financial Times * A true work of literature If McCarthys goal was for these books to haunt readers long after they are set aside, then he has succeeded. * LA Review of Books * Remarkable [Stella Maris] harmonises both sadly and gorgeously with its recent predecessor. Side by side, both novels affirm the extraordinary poetry and strangeness of McCarthys vision * Sydney Morning Herald * Like Bachs concertos, these triumphant novels depart the realm of art and encroach upon science, aimed at some Platonic point beyond our reckoning where all spheres converge * TIME * Great additions to McCarthy's already outstanding oeuvre and proof that the mind of one of our greatest living writers is as sharp as it has ever been. * NPR *
