This is Volume One of the «Border Trilogy». ’A uniquely brilliant book… told in language as subtly beautiful as its desert setting. One of the most important pieces of American writing of our time’ – Stephen Amidon, «Sunday Times». 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. «All the Pretty Horses» is an acknowledged masterpiece and a grand love story: a novel about childhood passing, along with 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. ’A darkly shining work… executed with consummate skill and much subtlety — the effect is magnificent’ – John Banville, «Observer». ’An exhilarating, exceptional novel’ – «Spectator». ’In a single stride it takes McCarthy to the forefront of contemporary American fiction. All the Pretty Horses is indisputably a masterpiece’ – «Financial Times».

    No tengo manera de describir lo que esta novela significó para mi. Es maravillosa, desesperante, angustiante y a la vez sabes que hay esperanza de que todo mejore. La manera de describir los paisajes, los lugares, las habitaciones, las personas y las acciones hace que las puedas ver con claridad en tu mente. Es hermosa en cuanto al tema de la amistad, la camaradería. La determinación del protagonista para hacer lo que se propone es increíble. Y es una novela nostálgica y triste, que evoca la soledad y el sentido de no pertenencia a ningún lugar. La recomiendo a todos, les va a encantar. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

    He thought the world's heart beat at some terrible cost and that the world's pain and its beauty moved in a relationship of diverging equity and that in this headlong deficit the blood of multitudes might ultimately be exacted for the vision of a single flower.

    He remembered Alejandra and the sadness he'd first seen in the slope of her shoulders which he'd presumed to understand and of which he knew nothing and he felt a loneliness he'd not known since he was a child and he felt wholly alien to the world although he loved it still.
