Cormac McCarthy is a huge fan of poetry. Even calling himself (Suttree) "the poet" for multiple drafts of "Suttree." In today's video we will review McCarthy's published poetry, a clip of him talking about modern poetry, and his poetic influences which include Robert Frost, Dylan Thomas, Yeats, Ezra Pound, and more! I will also go over how McCarthy was in the last real generation of poets who were inventing poetry as a collective before the meritocracy of poetry was destroyed forever!
