Today we will be talking about the only statement that we know of that Cormac McCarthy has said in relation to "The Passenger" outside of a general synopsis of it he's made in a couple interviews. This was found in a box in relation to McCarthy's novel "The Road." However, this statement does not reveal the plot or direction of the novel, but rather a maybe "inspirational" quote about the process of writing "The Passenger." As we talked about in other videos McCarthy may have been working on The Passenger for 40-50 YEARS! So it's 100% understandable that he was worried about perfectionism.
