Imprint: Pan Books Ltd, 1993 This is volume one of the "Border" triology. John Grady Cole is the last be wildered survivor of long generations of Texas ranchers. Finding himself cu t off from the only life he has ever wanted, he sets out for Mexico with hi s friend Lacey Rawlins. Befriending a third boy on the way, they find a cou ntry beyond their imagining: barren and beautiful, rugged yet cruelly civil ized; a place where dreams are paid for in blood. "All The Pretty Horses" i s an acknowledged masterpiece and a grand love story: a novel about childho od passing, along with innocence and a vanished American age. Steeped in th e wisdom that comes only from loss, it is a magnificent parable of responsi bility, revenge and survival. 'A darkly shining work ...executed with consu mmate skill and much subtlety the effect is magnificent' - John Banville, " Observer". 'A uniquely brilliant book ...told in language as subtly beautif ul as its desert setting. One of the most important pieces of American writ ing of our time' - Stephen Amidon, "Sunday Times"., Good Stock number: RWARE0000029373.

Living in Hildago County,New Mexico,in the years before the Second World War,Billy and Boyd Parham are teenage brothers,both seeking adventure but neither realizing that they live on the cusp of unimaginable events.First comes a trespassing Indian and the dream of wolves running wild amongst the cattle lately brought on to the plains by settlers.Billy sets forth to trap a she-wolf that has thwarted his father and which he will return to the mountains of Mexico. While he returns home after a long absence he finds everything he left behind utterly transformed,and it is only his brother Boyd who reminds him of the past. Together they strike out yet again in order to reclaim what is theirs - thus crossing into 'that antique gaze from whence there could be no way back forever'. What they find instead is an extraordinary panoply of fiestas and circuses,dogs and horses and hawks,pilgrims and revolutionaries,grand haciendas and forlorn cantinas,bandits and gypsies and roving tribes,a young girl alone on the road,a mystery in the mountain wilds and a myth in the making. 'The Crossing' is as magisterial and breathtaking a novel as you are likely to encounter.It is,without doubt,a masterpiece,a book that touches,stops and starts the heart and mind at once and affirms the power of fiction to amaze.

Imprint: Vintage Books, 2007 A crisp clean softcover, no markings throughout: The searing, postapocalyptic novel destined to become Cormac McCarthy's mas terpiece. A father and his son walk alone through burned America. Nothing moves in th e ravaged landscape save the ash on the wind. It is cold enough to crack st ones, and when the snow falls it is gray. The sky is dark. Their destinatio n is the coast, although they don't know what, if anything, awaits them the re. They have nothing; just a pistol to defend themselves against the lawle ss bands that stalk the road, the clothes they are wearing, a cart of scave nged food--and each other. The Road is the profoundly moving story of a journey. It boldly imagines a future in which no hope remains, but in which the father and his son, "each the other's world entire," are sustained by love. Awesome in the totality of its vision, it is an unflinching meditation on the worst and the best that we are capable of: ultimate destructiveness, desperate tenacity, and the tenderness that keeps two people alive in the face of total devastation., Near Fine Stock number: RWARE0000022627.

Imprint: New York City, NY, Alfred A. Knopf, 2006 First Edition / First Printing. Fine in Fine Dust Jacket. 241 pages. Rare Cormac McCarthy collectible set. A fine copy of "The Road" with the Complete Dramatic Reading of the novel (on six compact discs) by Tom Stechschulte, one of the most brilliant American character actors and recording voices of our time. The author's tenth novel. One of Cormac McCarthy's finest achievements. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original only that sold out shortly after publication. The First Edition is now scarce. Presents Cormac McCarthy's "The Road". By enduring critical and popular consensus, the author's triumphant return to top form. "In our age of relentless saber-rattling by global powers, it is not much of a leap to feel his vision could be not far off the mark nor, sadly, right around the corner. Stealing across this horrific landscape are an unnamed man and his emaciated son. It is the love the father feels for his son, a love as deep and acute as his grief, that could surprise readers of McCarthy's previous work, as his Gnostic impressions of Mankind have left very little place for love" (Dennis Lehane). "If God meant to interfere in the degeneracy of mankind would he not have done so by now?" (Cormac McCarthy). An absolute "must-have" title for Cormac McCarthy collectors. This title is a contemporary classic. This is one of few copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and despite its imperfection (visible rubbing on the black DJ) is still in especially fine condition: Every single internal page is clean, crisp, and bright. The boards are sharp, NO bumping at all. It comes with a fine copy of the Complete Dramatic Reading of the novel (on six CD's) by Tom Stechschulte, one of the most brilliant American character actors of our time, whose voice in recordings of various literary classics is universally acclaimed. Please note: The reading is in true Compact Disc (CD) format, infinitely superior as such in terms of production values to the MP3 version available online. Copies of the book available online have very serious flaws, are in multiple subsequent printings, or are overpriced. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare set thus. Cormac McCarthy's "Blood Meridian" is regarded by Harold Bloom as the greatest American novel of the last quarter of the 20th century. "Blood Meridian" and "The Border Trilogy" were selected by The New York Times panel of writers, critics, and editors as among the Top 20 greatest works of American fiction of the last 25 years. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Literature in 2007 for "The Road". One of the greatest American novelists of our time. A fine set. (SEE ALSO OTHER CORMAC MCCARTHY TITLES IN OUR CATALOG).
