Cormac McCarthy Livres

En 1949, parce que l'Amérique moderne condamne leurs rêves d'aventures, John et Lacey quittent le Texas pour le Mexique. Violente et traversée d'aveuglants moments de bonheur, leur odyssée se transforme pourtant en descente aux enfers

L'apocalypse a eu lieu. Le monde est dévasté, couvert de cendres et de cadavres. Parmi les survivants, un père et son fils errent sur une route, poussant un Caddie rempli d'objets hétéroclites. Dans la pluie, la neige et le froid, ils avancent vers les côtes du Sud, la peur au ventre : des hordes de sauvages cannibales terrorisent ce qui reste de l'humanité. Survivront-ils à leur voyage ?

This graphic novel adaptation brings Cormac McCarthy’s Pulitzer Prize-winning postapocalyptic tale to life through the artistry of acclaimed cartoonist Manu Larcenet. With McCarthy's approval, the adaptation captures the haunting journey of a father and son navigating a desolate world, emphasizing themes of survival, love, and the human spirit amid despair. The visual storytelling enhances the emotional depth of the original narrative, making it accessible to both new readers and fans of the classic novel.

Cormac McCarthy’s award-winning, bestselling trio of novels chronicles the coming-of-age of two young men in the south west of America. John Grady Cole and Billy Parham, two cowboys of the old school, are poised on the edge of a world about to change forever. Their journeys across the border into Mexico, each an adventure fraught with fear and pain, mark a passage into adulthood, and eventual salvation. In All the Pretty Horses, young John Grady Cole, dispossessed by the sale of his family’s Texas ranch, heads across the border in search of the cowboy life, where he finds a job breaking horses, and a dangerously ill-fated romance. In The Crossing, sixteen-year-old Billy Parham captures a wolf that has been marauding his family’s ranch and, instead of killing it, decides to take it on a perilous journey home to the mountains of Mexico.These two drifters come together years later in Cities of the Plain, a magnificent tale of friendship and passion. In the vanishing world of the Old West, blood and violence are conditions of life. Beautiful and brutal, filled with sorrow and humour, The Border Trilogy is both an epic love story and a fierce elegy for the American frontier.

Arguably the masterpiece of a novelist as highly praised and scarcely read as any living writer, the Vintage Contemporaries reprint of "Suttree" should help to bring McCarthy the readers to match his many awards and voluminous reviews.
