*CHOICE, March 2010*
These essays are engagingly written—demonstrating that criticism
centering on the author's perceived intention is alive and well,
and perhaps even reasserting itself in defiance of Roland Barthe's
claim that the 'author' as a critical entity no longer exists. No
Country for Old Men: From Novel to Film offers a valuable
resource—not only to students of McCarthy's novels and their
adaptations but also for those interested in modern reconstructions
of the Western genre. I recommend it as a thoroughly entertaining
read.
