Have you read Suttree? It's all about Knoxville when Cormac was growing up.
Per wiki:
quote:
Set in 1951 in Knoxville, Tennessee, the novel follows Cornelius Suttree, who has repudiated his former life of privilege to become a fisherman on the Tennessee River. The novel has a fragmented structure with many flashbacks and shifts in grammatical person. Suttree has been compared [1] to James Joyce's Ulysses, John Steinbeck's Cannery Row, and called [2] "a doomed version" of Mark Twain's Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Suttree was written over a 20-year span [3] and is a departure from McCarthy's previous novels, being much longer, more sprawling in structure, and perhaps McCarthy's most humorous novel.
