Through the increasing number of cinematic adaptations of his work, including the Oscar-winning \u003ci\u003eNo Country for Old Men\u003c\/i\u003e, and the Pulitzer Prize for \u003ci\u003eThe Road\u003c\/i\u003e, McCarthy is entering the mainstream of cultural consciousness, both in the United States and abroad. In \u003ci\u003eAdventures in Reading Cormac McCarthy\u003c\/i\u003e, Peter Josyph considers, at length, the author's two masterworks \u003ci\u003eBlood Meridian\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eSuttree\u003c\/i\u003e, as well as the novel and film of \u003ci\u003eAll the Pretty Horses\u003c\/i\u003e, McCarthy's play \u003ci\u003eThe Stonemason\u003c\/i\u003e, and his film \u003ci\u003eThe Gardener's Son\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe book also includes extended conversations with critic Harold Bloom about Blood Meridian; novelist and poet Robert Morgan about \u003ci\u003eThe Gardener's Son\u003c\/i\u003e; critic Rick Wallach about \u003ci\u003eBlood Meridian\u003c\/i\u003e; and Oscar-winning screenwriter Ted Tally about his film adaptation of \u003ci\u003eAll the Pretty Horses\u003c\/i\u003e.
