Editorial Review:

Product Description:
By the author of Blood Meridian and All the Pretty Horses, Suttree is the story of Cornelius Suttree, who has forsaken a life of privilege with his prominent family to live in a dilapidated houseboat on the Tennessee River near Knoxville. Remaining on the margins of the outcast community there--a brilliantly imagined collection of eccentrics, criminals, and squatters--he rises above the physical and human squalor with detachment, humor, and dignity.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Suttree: An artistic Look at the Underbelly
This beautifully written book has no real plot at all; rather it is a series of incidents and vignettes, painting a depressing but amusing picture of life among the dregs of society. Sutree is an educated alcoholic who has abandoned his wife and family and is living in a dilapidated houseboat on the Tennessee River near Knoxville. He has dozens of close, destitute friends, all of whom are drunks, deadbeats, jailbirds, prostitutes, catamites, semi-madmen, or terminally ill. His infinite patience ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A Brilliant Work of Art
It's hard to imagine how someone could write such a superb book as "Suttree", but Cormac McCarthy is a whole order of magnitude above most writers. This fascinating book tells the tale of Cornelius Suttree as he lives his hardscrabble life along the Tennessee River near Knoxville in the '50s. The book is filled with some of the most memorable characters in modern literature, not the least of them Suttree himself. This picaresque book hurls humor and sadness at the reader and dialog that is so ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Why can't I write like this?
I wish I had the ability to describe just how stunningly good this book is. The prose approaches perfection. I rarely ascribe true and unrelenting genius to writers, but I will make an exception for Mr. McCarthy. My favorite opening sentence of all time...

"Dear friend now in the dusty clockless hours of the town when the streets lie black and steaming in the wake of the watertrucks and now when the drunk and the homeless have washed up in the lee of walls in alleys or abandoned lots ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - suttree
Incomprehensible..Boring, A waste of money..
I you want to spend time trying to unravel what the heck this man is trying to say, then do so..I gave it my best shot and in disgust tossed it into the waste basket.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - McCarthy, Simplified.
Suttree is much more simplistic than The Border Trilogy, and No Country for Old Men. Consequently, the language is not as beautiful. McCarthy, in writing Suttree, was only honing his skill towards greatness.
