John Grady Cole is the last bewildered survivor of long generations
of Texas ranchers. Finding himself cut off from the only life he
has ever wanted, he sets out for Mexico with his friend Lacey
Rawlins. Befriending a third boy on the way, they find a country
beyond their imagining: barren and beautiful, rugged yet cruelly
civilized; a place where dreams are paid for in blood. The first
volume in McCarthy's legendary Border Trilogy, All The Pretty
Horses is an acknowledged masterpiece and a grand love story: a
novel about the passing of childhood, of innocence and a vanished
American age. Steeped in the wisdom that comes only from loss, it
is a magnificent parable of responsibility, revenge and survival.
This edition is part of the Picador Collection, a series of the
best in contemporary literature, inaugurated in Picador's 50th
Anniversary year.
