Question
When I was reading the book, I got the feeling that Cormac McCarthy believes the world to be a dark place. And now, i have to write an essay for English and i need some help please:

What do you believe to be Cormac McCarthy's view of justice in the world?

I think he thinks justice=power, and justice is not always just.

I need some examples from the book, if you can please help. Or i need a better answer/thesis. Thanks

John

Answer
John,

I cannot help write assigned papers, however here are a few tips for Thesis statements.

1. They have to be something to prove, not something selfevedent.

2. If you think McCarthy's view of Justice is that it is power, then you have to prove that.

3. figure out 4-5 small thesis statements that add up to you thesis. this was your paragraphs are logically ordered.

Beyond this I cant help because i am not allowed to help with assignments.

Good Luck
Dylan
