The only McCarthy I have read – and it was a horrible slog – was THE ROAD. I was continually being dragged up out of the story to examine the writing and there’s NOTHING I hate more as a reader. Why is this sentence capitalized, when most aren’t? Is there significance to this bit of dialogue actually being attributed? Does McCarthy just not bother with editors at all?

Never had that experience with Faulkner.
