Cormac McCarthy is the author of many acclaimed novels, including <i>Blood Meridian</i>, <i>The Road </i>and <i>No Country For Old Men</i><i>. </i><i>All the Pretty Horses</i> forms part of the Border Trilogy, together with <i>The Crossing</i> and <i>Cities of the Plain</i>. Among his honours are the National Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award. Set along the familiar bloody frontier of the Border Trilogy, <i>No Country for Old Men</i> portrays a time when drug agents and hit men rule the land. Vivid, thrilling and visceral. <b>Adapted by the Coen Brothers into an Academy Award winning film, <i>No Country For Old Men</i> is a dark and suspenseful novel from Cormac McCarthy, author of <i>The Road</i>.</b> Llewelyn Moss, hunting antelope near the Rio Grande, stumbles upon a transaction gone horribly wrong. Finding bullet-ridden bodies, several kilos of heroin, and a caseload of cash, he faces a choice – leave the scene as he found it, or cut the money and run. Choosing the latter, he knows, will change everything. And so begins a terrifying chain of events, in which each participant seems determined to answer the question that one asks another: how does a man decide in what order to abandon his life? This edition is part of the Picador Collection, a new list of the best in contemporary literature published in Picador's 50th Anniversary year. McCarthy's eagerly anticipated new novels, <i>The Passenger</i> and <i>Stella Maris</i>, will be published by Picador in October 2022.
