Cormac McCarthy's Veer

In 2017, Karol Jalochowski recorded more than an hour of a conversation between Cormac McCarthy and his friend and colleague at the Santa Fe Institute, David Krakauer. The result included the nature of the Wild West, humans‘ relationship to animals and themselves, the conscious and unconscious, math, and isolation of human beings. The author later shortened the piece and through sensitive editing and illustrative shots facilitated the audiovisual connection with the giant of the Western novel, who wrote his best work alone on top of a mountain in Santa Fe.
