Кони, кони... (Иллюминатор)

The setting feels almost like a character itself, shaping the characters' journeys. I'm curious whether the author drew from personal experiences or extensive research.

The novel leaves a sense of longing and resilience. I wonder if McCarthy intended this duality or if it emerged naturally from the story.

The characters seem caught between the desire to remain pure and the harsh realities they face. Did others interpret their arcs as a loss of innocence or a form of growth?
