ABSTRACT

In this keynote address given at the Cormac McCarthy Society International Conference held at Trinity College Dublin in June 2022, author Kevin Power reflects on parenthood as represented in McCarthy’s works and as personal experience. He focuses particular attention on questions surrounding the decision to have children in a dangerous, violent, and anthopogenically warming world.
