The graphic novel adaptation of Cormac McCarthy’s Pulitzer Prize–winning postapocalyptic classic, The Road, approved and authorized by McCarthy and illustrated by acclaimed cartoonist Manu Larcenet. Now an Eisner Award winner and named a "must-read graphic novel" by Amazon.

"Superb. A suitably dark graphic treatment of McCarthy’s postapocalyptic masterpiece." (Kirkus)

The story of a nameless father and son trying to survive with their humanity intact in a postapocalyptic wasteland where Earth’s natural resources have been diminished, and some survivors are left to raise others for meat, The Road is one of Cormac McCarthy’s bleakest and most prescient novels.

Dedicated to his son, John Francis McCarthy, McCarthy’s The Road is one of his most personal novels. Ranked 17th on The Guardian’s 100 Best Novels of the 21st century, it was the recipient of the Pulitzer Prize for literature, and the James Tait Black Memorial Award, the Believer Award, and it was nominated for the National Book Critics Circle Award.

The best-selling, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Road returns with the first of a two-volume masterpiece: The Passenger is the story of a salvage diver, haunted by loss, afraid of the watery deep, pursued for a conspiracy beyond his understanding, and longing for a death he cannot reconcile with God.
1980, PASS CHRISTIAN, MISSISSIPPI: It is three in the morning when Bobby Western zips the jacket of his wetsuit and plunges from the Coast Guard tender into darkness. His divelight illuminates the sunken jet, nine bodies still buckled in their seats, hair floating, eyes devoid of speculation. Missing from the crash site are the pilot’s flightbag, the plane’s black box, and the tenth passenger. But how? A collateral witness to machinations that can only bring him harm, Western is shadowed in body and spirit—by men with badges; by the ghost of his father, inventor of the bomb that melted glass and flesh in Hiroshima; and by his sister, the love and ruin of his soul.
Traversing the American South, from the garrulous barrooms of New Orleans to an abandoned oil rig off the Florida coast, The Passenger is a breathtaking novel of morality and science, the legacy of sin, and the madness that is human consciousness.

Estamos en los territorios de la frontera entre México y USA a mitad del siglo XIX. La autoridades mexicanas y del Estado de Texas forman una expedición paramilitar para acabar con el mayor número de indios posible. Es el llamado Grupo Glanton, que tiene como líder espiritual al llamado juez Holden, un ser violento y cruel: un hombre calvo como una bola de billar, albino, sin barba, sin pestañas, ni cejas. Holden Nunca duerme, le gusta bailar y tocar el violín. Viola, asesina y afirma que nunca morirá. En un momento determinado los carniceros de Glanton pasan de asesinar indios y arrancarles la cabellera a exterminar a los mexicanos que les pagaban. Empieza así la ley de la selva. Además del juez el otro protagonista es el Chico, que a sus quince años, recibe un disparo por la espalda pero milagrosamente sobrevive... Las vidas de los dos protagonistas se cruzarán sin remedio. McCarthy es una de las voces más ásperas y potentes de la narrativa norteamericana actual, una voz que recoge la herencia de William Faulkner.

Arrebatadora e original, A estrada não é apenas uma narrativa apocalíptica, mas também uma história comovente sobre amadurecimento, esperança e as relações profundas entre pai e filho. Vencedor do Pulitzer, obra-prima da literatura contemporânea e um dos livros mais aclamados de Cormac McCarthy, o romance retorna às livrarias em nova edição.

Num futuro não muito distante, o planeta está devastado. As cidades foram transformadas em ruínas e pó; as florestas viraram cinzas, os céus ficaram turvos com a fuligem e os mares se tornaram estéreis; os poucos sobreviventes vagam em bandos. Em meio a essa Terra arrasada, um homem e seu filho caminham por estradas abandonadas, em direção à costa. Empurram um carrinho com seus poucos pertences, estão em farrapos e com os rostos cobertos por panos para se protegerem da fuligem que preenche o ar e recobre a paisagem. Tentam fugir do frio, sem saber, no entanto, o que encontrarão no final da viagem. Mas essa jornada é a única coisa que pode mantê-los unidos, que pode lhes dar um pouco de força para sobreviver.

Obra que representa uma mudança surpreendente na ficção de McCarthy, A estrada é muito mais do que um relato pós-apocalíptico. É a história profunda e comovente de um pai e seu filho, "cada um o mundo inteiro do outro", e a jornada que empreendem num futuro em que não existe mais esperança. Nesse cenário desolador, o amor entre ambos os fará prosseguir em busca da salvação.

En far och hans son vandrar ensamma genom ett nedbränt amerikanskt landskap. Kylan är genomträngande och snön som faller blandas med askan i luften. Himlen är släckt på ljus.

Deras destination är kusten, men de vet inte om något väntar på dem där. Allt de har är en pistol att försvara sig med mot de laglösa gäng som rör sig längs vägen, de kläder de bär på kroppen, en kärra med mat de hittat -- och varandra.

Vägen är en djupt gripande berättelse om en resa. På ett hypnotiskt kraftfullt sätt ställs kärleken mellan en far och hans son mot en hopplöst skrämmande framtid. Det värsta och det bästa som människan kan åstadkomma genomströmmar detta mörka, intagande mästerverk.

By the author of the critically acclaimed Border Trilogy, "Outer Dark" is a novel at once mythic and starkly evocative, set in an unspecified place in Appalachia sometime around the turn of the century. A woman bears her brother's child, a boy; the brother leaves the baby in the woods and tells her he died of natural causes. Discovering her brother's lie, she sets forth alone to find her son. Both brother and sister wander separately through a countryside being scourged by three terrifying and elusive strangers, headlong toward an eerie, apocalyptic resolution.

'McCarthy is a master stylist, perhaps without equal in American letters . . . In his hands, everything is done with consummate skill' "Village Voice "

'McCarthy has made the fabulous real, the ordinary mysterious' "New York Times "

'A profound parable that ultimately speaks to any society in any time' "Time"

WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE • NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A searing, post-apocalyptic novel about a father and son’s fight to survive that “only adds to McCarthy’s stature as a living master. It’s gripping, frightening and, ultimately, beautiful” (San Francisco Chronicle).

One of The New York Times’s 100 Best Books of the 21st Century

A father and his son walk alone through burned America. Nothing moves in the ravaged landscape save the ash on the wind. It is cold enough to crack stones, and when the snow falls it is gray. The sky is dark. Their destination is the coast, although they don’t know what, if anything, awaits them there. They have nothing; just a pistol to defend themselves against the lawless bands that stalk the road, the clothes they are wearing, a cart of scavenged 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.

Alternate Cover Edition for ISBN 9780375706677

In his blistering new novel, Cormac McCarthy returns to the Texas-Mexico border, the setting of his famed Border Trilogy . The time is our own, when rustlers have given way to drug-runners and small towns have become free-fire zones.

One day, Llewellyn Moss finds a pickup truck surrounded by a bodyguard of dead men. A load of heroin and two million dollars in cash are still in the back. When Moss takes the money, he sets off a chain reaction of catastrophic violence that not even the law–in the person of aging, disillusioned Sheriff Bell–can contain.

As Moss tries to evade his pursuers–in particular a mysterious mastermind who flips coins for human lives–McCarthy simultaneously strips down the American crime novel and broadens its concerns to encompass themes as ancient as the Bible and as bloodily contemporary as this morning’s headlines.
No Country for Old Men is a triumph.

The best-selling, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Road returns with the second of a two-volume masterpiece: Stella Maris is an intimate portrait of grief and longing, as a young woman in a psychiatric facility seeks to understand her own existence.
1972, BLACK RIVER FALLS, WISCONSIN: Alicia Western, twenty years old, with forty thousand dollars in a plastic bag, admits herself to the hospital. A doctoral candidate in mathematics at the University of Chicago, Alicia has been diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia, and she does not want to talk about her brother, Bobby. Instead, she contemplates the nature of madness, the human insistence on one common experience of the world; she recalls a childhood where, by the age of seven, her own grandmother feared for her; she surveys the intersection of physics and philosophy; and she introduces her cohorts, her chimeras, the hallucinations that only she can see. All the while, she grieves for Bobby, not quite dead, not quite hers. Told entirely through the transcripts of Alicia’s psychiatric sessions, Stella Maris is a searching, rigorous, intellectually challenging coda to The Passenger, a philosophical inquiry that questions our notions of God, truth, and existence.

Adapted by the Coen Brothers into an Academy Award winning film, No Country For Old Men is a dark and suspenseful novel from Cormac McCarthy, author of The Road.

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?

剧情介绍：
《老无所依》根据普利策奖得主科马克·麦卡锡的小说改编，故事发生在1980年美国、墨西哥边境一处荒凉、野蛮的村庄，那里毒品、暴力肆虐。一次毒品交易，巨额金钱，有人席卷不义之财溜之大吉，黑道众人喋血追杀。原著用德州方言写就，描绘了一幅令人过目难忘的美国西部画卷。这片土地上的新兴暴力力量让他们19世纪黑道前辈的传说相形见绌。确实，相比起以往的“淘金年代西部片”，这部影片将西部描绘得更加蛮荒和可怖，其中的暴力场面可以用血流成河、尸骨遍野来形容。
然而，本来沉郁苍重的小说竟然能被改编得处处闪现天才机智和黑色幽默的光芒，而原著体现的深切人文关怀却一点都没被牺牲。
影片中有三个主要人物：警长——被时代变革定格的卫道士、杀手——精神极度变态；越南兽医——拣到一个装满不义之财的包后，他的生活发生了翻天覆地的变化。扮演这名兽医的是刚出演了昆汀·塔伦蒂诺的《刑房》的乔什·布罗林；奥斯卡奖得主汤米·李·琼斯扮演警长；而扮演杀手的是出演过《深海长眠》的西班牙男星贾维尔·巴尔登！
第60届戛纳电影节上此片获得极高评价，《老无所依》已定于今年11月起在全球上映，显然目标也早已瞄准了明年年初颁发的奥斯卡奖。
