Suttree — Cormac McCarthy

From the bestselling author of The Passenger and the Pulitzer Prizeâ€"winning novel The Road, here 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.

Look for Cormac McCarthy's latest bestselling novels, The Passenger and Stella Maris.
