Why read it?
1 author picked The Passenger as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
The Passenger by Cormac McCarthy is his long-awaited final novel, published shortly before his death.
Fans of McCarthy (of which I am, as I wrote my master’s thesis on McCarthy in graduate school) will find a lot to like in this work of literary fiction. What makes this book especially unique is its companion, Stella Maris, can also be read to extend the experience of the novel.
