Was Cormac MCCarthy intentionally alluding to the strange paleness of Moby Dick when he describes The Judge in a similar fashion?
>IMO it was purposeful to show that The Judge is a similar force of nature to the Whale
I think he was alluding to The Judge being a man child, and the raw power that man children possess

That's what I thought when I read it too because I know Moby-Dick influenced BM. I didn't look too far into it though.

He doesnt do anything that overt.
