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.

I read this book because it is on the Modern Library's Top 100 List. This is by far the worst novel I've ever read in my life! There is no plot, it is boring, and very very long.

In my opinion, this is Cormac McCarthy at his absolute finest. The story of Suttree, the homeless vagabond, is so utterly compelling that time just falls away as you're reading it. If you've never read McCarthy (*gasp!*), this would be a helluva great place to start. This story haunts me.

I enjoyed this book very much. I have enjoyed all the books I have read by Cormac McCarthy. They don't always end happily but are true to life.
