Tumblr with the hilarious premise: What if Cormac McCarthy was addicted to reviewing restaurants and stores on Yelp?
Yelping with Cormac
JAMBA JUICE
I’ll have another, he said.
The clerk wiped down the counter and would not look at him. We’re not supposed to give customers more than three guarana boosts, he said.

The clerk poured another shot of what looked to be hog lagoon effluent and pushed the glass across the counter.
The man took the brimming glass with a calloused hand and stared into the murk and staring back were wolf eyes golden and immutable. He tossed the shot back. As if in consuming the vision he could consume the memory as well. The scar sickled across his face throbbing.
So, does Cormac *never *use quotation marks? I only have one book of his, The Road , which I just cracked open (so this is my intro to Cormac). There don’t appear to be quotation marks in the dialogue. What the heck?
