Influence study situating McCarthy’s writing, including The Orchard Keeper (1965), No Country for Old Men (2005), and The Road (2006) within the context of Hemingway’s canon. Josephs identifies numerous echoes of technique, imagery, and theme, concluding that their greatest parallel is their desire to stand against the darkness of the modern world.
