Title: SAD, WHAT MIGHT'VE BEEN
Review: A weak, confusing and largely pointless story from one of our greatest writers. I just feel so sorry. My condolences, Mr. McCarthy. Your immense talent has mostly deserted you here.The worst of it, as a friend of mine says, is that you can see the book it might've been. It probably could not have been as richly rewarding as his great novels, "Blood Meridian" and "Suttree," but it could've been a lot better than this. (A similar book that is much more successful is Kem Nunn's "Tijuana Straits.")Still, "No Country For Old Men" has its moments. Even for all its faults, it's much better than the usual bestseller cheese.
