Cormac McCarthy getting the idea for his Tennessee novel that would later become "The Passenger" is one of the things I find most interesting in "Embracing Vocation." From what I understand, he got the idea from a poem about a man throwing his clarinet into a lake. Before reading this, I thought that he started "The Passenger" in the 1970s, based on the Fall 2022 Santa Fe Newsletter. I also cant help but wonder if the sunken jet in "The Passenger" stemmed from that clarinet in the water.
I just read in a Telegraph article that Cormac and Anne spent some time in Ibiza, and that they traveled Europe in a Jaguar which he repaired himself. After reading that and listening to your video, seems The Passenger might be one of his more autobiographical novels. Fascinating stuff!
I’m married to a woman now & while we’ve grown together, I feel as if it won’t last. You talk a lot about McCarthy’s desire to live a subjective life & certain concepts pertaining to postmodernism, yet I’m wondering if you have anymore knowledge about Cormac’s POV on the subject of relationships. Not just with woman, but friends, the self, etc.
"You don't meet nice girls in coffee shops" Great video! McCarthy is the proto-sadboy. Cormac is our guy and a genius, but it was definitely him that was the problem. Warm regards to Two-Sun
Lol! Thanks Ernesto! It's alright, Cormac looks really good in regards to his personal life compared to most authors. We all have to make hard decisions that others in the present and future may not understand. If any of us got famous, people would question our worst moments. However, Cormac is a massive net positive in terms of impact and contribution. Shoutout Prague!
I've watched several videos from this channel so far and the vibe so far (respectfully) is fan boy. This video feels like real growth for you as a researcher and communicator. Good work.
Thanks Tom! Expect more videos like this. Have hundreds of videos planned for this year related to McCarthy. Some will be more fan boy chill videos and others will be theory or research based!
I did brotha! It will be back on my t-shirt website soon. Probably in about two weeks. It is down right now for a resdesign plus an addition of 25+ new designs and styles!

Exactly! I need to find an analyze that poem and see exactly what's going on lol.

Whoa, didn't make that connection! Crazy stuff!
Was he imitating Paul Bowles?
@@Johnconnowhat makes you say that? Never heard of the guy would be interested in any parallels you see

Talk about it all the time! Sorry about your relationship. Cormac seems to hold heavy boundaries and stick to them no matter!
@@WriteConscious I’m grateful for our personal growth, specifically our mental health. Worth the 6 years. Ty for the consciousness

Maybe. He was a rich kid and attending a four year university.
