You mean synthesize Faulkner and Faulkner and cowboys?

The Faulkner similar stops at the prose. Faulkner writes character-driven narratives, McCarthy's novels are theme-driven and almost always notably distant from the characters.

There isn't a single instance of empathetic psychological insight in BM and that's what fuels Faulkner's work

Wut? Mccarthy could tell you all you need to know about a character by the way he spits. There's a great passage that's about a paragraph long about Glanton in the 200's that has the weight of an entire novel in a few sentences. Let's not even start with the judge. Maybe he doesn't write realistic character driven books, but lets not pretend that BM isnt about Mccarthy's and humans struggle with God and how we (psychologically) reconcile this struggle by telling stories. What makes him such a great writer is his ability to do this by code.

YeCarthy fags are the worst. Grow up.

His prose is channeled Faulkner, and while I certainly dont find it beautiful it is always a service to the content of his work.
