when i was a kid i thought No Country for Old Men was about nihilism and violence and how it breaks people down over time. then i reread the book in college and realized it's actually about how city metrosexuals with green hair and body piercings have destroyed society

the sheriff views these as one phenomenon, but idk that McCarthy does (there’s the story about a man being murdered in the early 1900s where the premise is that this is nothing new)
