[The Border Trilogy:] All the Pretty Horses, The Crossing, [and] Cities of the Plain

New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1992, 1994, 1998. First editions. A Fine set in like dust jackets.

All the Pretty Horses, The Crossing, and Cities of the Plain comprise the Border Trilogy, though the novels were written and published over a span of six years. Detailing the rough-riding lifestyle of its cowboy protagonists living near the United States-Mexico border, the trilogy is McCarthy at his best: All the Pretty Horses won the National Book Award in 1992 and the series has been the basis for multiple film adaptations.

“[McCarthy] is the great pessimist of American literature, using his dervish sentences to illuminate a world in which almost everything (including punctuation) has already come to dust” (The Guardian). Fine in Fine dust jacket. (Item #8298)
