McCarthy was the author of twelve novels, two plays, five screenplays, and three short stories, spanning the Western and post-apocalyptic genres.
He was also known for his graphic depictions of violence and his unique writing style, recognizable by the sparse use of punctuation and attribution.
Due to his exceptional writing skills, McCarthy is widely regarded as one of the greatest modern American writers.
His debut novel, “The Orchard Keeper”, was published in 1965. McCarthy was nearly 60 when, in 1992, his sixth novel, “All the Pretty Horses”, brought him mainstream attention.
The book, “All the Pretty Horses” received both the National Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award and was also a bestselling award-winner.
McCarthy also published the books; No Country for Old Men (2005) and The Road (2006) sold well and won awards too, the latter landing a Pulitzer.
“No Country For Old Men” and “The Road” both were turned into successful films and after a 16-year long silence, McCarthy’s final books; The Passenger and Stella Maris arrived in 2022.
He also worked with the Santa Fe Institute, a multidisciplinary research center, where he published the essay “The Kekulé Problem” which explores the human unconscious and the origin of language.
