By the author of the critically acclaimed "Border Trilogy", "Child of God" is a taut, chilling novel that plumbs the depths of human degradation. Lester Ballard, a violent, solitary and introverted young backwoodsman dispossessed on his ancestral land, is released from jail and allowed to haunt the hill country of East Tennessee, preying on the population with his strange lusts. McCarthy transforms commonplace brushes with humanity - in homesteads, stores and in the woods - into stunning scenes of the comic and the grotesque, and as the story hurtles toward its unforgettable conclusion, depicts the most sordid aspects of life with dignity, humour, and characteristic lyrical brilliance. 'Demands its reader's attention from the opening sentence' - "Newsweek". 'A reading experience so impressive, so 'new', so clearly well made that it seems almost to defy the easy aesthetic categories ...Accomplished in rare, spare, precise yet poetic prose' - "New Republic". 'His prose, unfailingly beautiful and exact, carries us into a dreamworld of astonishing and violent revelation. It is a frightening, entrancing world, which we must finally recognize as our own' - Tobias Wolff. 'McCarthy is a powerful and talented writer, able to elicit compassion for his protagonist however terrible his action' - "Sunday Times".

讀過McCarthy的好幾本書,纔開始能欣賞英文版。McCarthy的長句多得讓人想死,但卻比短句更冷峻,更抽象。罪惡、暴力、孤獨的元素仍然貫穿全篇,而戲劇落幕無外是幾句簡單的禱文,幾顆耀眼的車燈。

評分“See him. You could say that he's sustained by his fellow men, like you. Has peopled the shore with them calling to him. A race that gives suck to the maimed and the crazed, that wants their wrong blood in its history and will have it. But they want this man's life. He has heard them in the night seeking him with lanterns and cries of execration. ”
評分罪惡無處不在,什麼造成的?
評分喜歡他的生猛有力,文字充滿節奏感。這本書的中文版介紹很搞笑,為瞭營銷真是滿口鬍言。
