Description
All the Pretty Horses is a masterpiece of American literature, a coming-of-age western that explores the passing of childhood and innocence in a bygone era. At the heart of the novel is John Grady Cole, a 16-year-old Texan who sets out on a journey to Mexico with his friend Lacey Rawlins, leaving behind the only life he has ever known.
Befriending a third boy on the way, they find a country that is both barren and beautiful, rugged yet cruelly civilized. This is a place where dreams are paid for in blood, and where the boundaries between reality and fantasy are blurred. A grand love story unfolds, one that is both poignant and powerful.
Part of the Picador Collection, All the Pretty Horses is the first novel in Cormac McCarthy's legendary Border Trilogy, followed by The Crossing and Cities of the Plain. Adapted into a film starring Matt Damon and Penélope Cruz, this novel is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in American literature and the human condition.
