Overview
On a hot August day, Beowulf Sheehan and his assistant Chika arrive at the Santa Fe Institute to meet and photograph Cormac McCarthy, writer of masterpieces such as Blood Meridian, No Country for Old Men, and The Road, auteur of the Southern Gothic, and figure renowned for avoiding the public eye. Their day together takes them from the light of Santa Fe to the shadows of Cormac’s home, exploring his art and life as they go, making what would become Cormac’s author portrait for his novels The Passenger and Stella Maris and, less than one year after they are published, the image used to announce the global news of his passing. The Father of the Man: The Last Author Portrait Sitting with Cormac McCarthy is a recounting of that great day, a photo essay (including many pictures published for the first time), an homage to Cormac and his art, and a reflection of Cormac’s work to serve as a lens through which Beowulf Sheehan better sees, understands, and loves his own father.
