>"He was in England, visiting friends, he explained, and had called to say ‘hello’. Straus was thrilled. He had visions of introducing McCarthy to key publishing and media figures, ‘But he said he wasn’t interested in that.’ McCarthy did, however, come into the office. ‘He was charm personified,’ said Straus. They talked about poetry and art. ‘'He didn’t seem interested in talking about his own books. But he did tell me that he read Moby Dick eight times a year, and the last book he’d read was by Ron Hansen, about stigmata.’ McCarthy left, and Straus has never heard from him again."
>"During the process of writing All The Pretty Horses, McCarthy enlisted the help of a local saddler, Rory Harfree, in order to better understand the animal about which the book is largely written. Harfree remembers the young McCarthy asking "tons of questions, literally hundreds" about horses, and borrowing one of his own horses to ride around the seven-acre property located on the southern outskirts of Knoxville. "He was a kind of a funny man. Always asking these questions. Writing it all down in his little notebook. I remember one time he just spent the whole day riding back and forth my yard on a quarter called Sterling. Just back and forth, for hours. The horse got awful irritable like, but Charlie just kept riding. [...] When it got dark I had to ask him to kindly quit for the day, but he just kept on riding back and forth. Had this awful wild look in his eyes. Said something about manifest destiny. To be honest I got pretty scared then. Surprised the horse didn't buck him clear."

>But he did tell me that he read Moby Dick eight times a year
incredibly based and red pilled
He was actually interested in writing a good book.
In all seriousness, it's clear McCarthy had a gift for storytelling and personifying his characters to a T. He was one of those people who didn't care for power and just wanted to represent the world the way it is. He had an immaculate sense of conceptualization others couldn't understand.
>he read Moby Dick eight times a year
Is it that good?
Amateur numbers just like his writing was amateurish.
Go be mad somewhere else.
