What are the conceits of Cormac McCarthy? He's apparently a low profile guy who doesn't interact much with the literary establishment. He gave Oprah an interview and, essentially, didn't tell her anything... even though he was extremely pleasant to her. Certainly, compared with the likes of Updike, he's a self-effacing guy who doesn't mess with what others are writing. Perhaps he doesn't care.
