Stephen King paid tribute to 'the greatest American novelist of my time'
An intensely private man, McCarthy almost never gave interviews. He granted a rare exception for Oprah Winfrey in 2007, telling her: “I don’t think are good for your head. If you spend a lot of time thinking about how to write a book, you probably shouldn’t be thinking about it, you probably should be doing it.”
But he was known to have been married and divorced three times, and had two sons – Cullen McCarthy, via first wife Lee Holleman, and John McCarthy, via third wife, Jennifer Winkley. In a statement, Nihar Malaviya, CEO of Penguin Random House, said, “Cormac McCarthy changed the course of literature. For sixty years, he demonstrated an unwavering dedication to his craft, and to exploring the infinite possibilities and power of the written word.”
Stephen King wrote: “Cormac McCarthy, maybe the greatest American novelist of my time, has passed away at 89. He was full of years and created a fine body of work, but I still mourn his passing.”
