 Linda Castillo on Cormac McCarthy and The Road
There are only a handful of books that have haunted me after I finished. Books that stayed with me in some profound way for days or weeks or even years after I closed the cover.
The Road by Cormac McCarthy is one of the most powerful books I've ever read...
Linda Castillo's latest book is After the Storm (Minotaur Books, July 2015). www.lindacastillo.com
"Writers on Reading" is a special ongoing Mystery Scene series available as a first-look exclusive to our newsletter subscribers.
