captures the animal but, rather than kill it, sets out impulsively for the mountains of Mexico to return it to from where it came. On his return, he will find himself – and his world – irrevocably changed. His innocence lost at a cruel price, the desolate beauty of the border will beckon once again . . . ‘ The Crossing is like a river in full spate: beautiful and dangerous’ – The Times ‘Nominally Westerns, these books are too entropic and philosophical to fit within the limits of the genre’ – Rachel Kushner, author of Creation Lake The Crossing is the second volume in the Border Trilogy. It is preceded by All the Pretty Horses and followed by Cities of the Plain . Praise for Cormac McCarthy: ‘McCarthy worked close to some religious impulse, his books were terrifying and absolute’ – Anne Enright, author of The Green Road and The Wren, The Wren 'His prose takes on an almost biblical quality, hallucinatory in its effect and evangelical in its power' – Stephen King, author of The Shining and the Dark Tower series '[I]n presenting the darker human impulses in his rich prose, [McCarthy] showed readers the necessity of facing up to existence' – Annie Proulx, author of Brokeback Mountain Part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the best of modern literature.
