A profound exploration of the nature of reality and the human mind, from the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Road and No Country for Old Men.
'A drought-busting, brain-vexing double act' - Guardian
Alicia Western is the following: Twenty years old. A brilliant mathematician at the University of Chicago. And a paranoid schizophrenic who does not want to talk about her brother, Bobby.
Told entirely through the transcripts of Alicia's psychiatric sessions, Cormac McCarthy's Stella Maris is a moving companion to The Passenger. It is a powerful enquiry that questions our notions of God, truth, and life itself.
'Cormac McCarthy was such a virtuoso, his language was so rich and new . . . his books were terrifying and absolute. His sentences were astonishing.' - Anne Enright
