Trilógia Hranica

Táto séria sleduje osudy mladých mužov na americko-mexickej hranici na začiatku 20. storočia. Vyznačuje sa drsnou krajinou, kde sa stretáva divokosť s civilizáciou a sny sa často platia krvou. Príbehy skúmajú témy dospievania, straty nevinnosti a hľadania identity v nehostinnom svete. Je to epický pohľad na stratenú éru americkej histórie a na univerzálne skúsenosti zodpovednosti, pomsty a prežitia.

  • Drei Klassiker der amerikanischen Literatur: Die Border-Trilogie Cormac McCarthy hat mit diesen drei Romanen einen Meilenstein in der Neuerfindung des Western-Genres gesetzt. Es sind Abenteuergeschichten, die in einer sterbenden, archaischen Welt spielen: ein Leben im Sattel, die Weite der Prärie. McCarthys Sprachmacht und Erzählkunst machen diese Geschichten von Liebe, Gewalt und Rache zu großer Literatur. (Klappentext)

    Cormac McCarthy’s award-winning, bestselling trio of novels chronicles the coming-of-age of two young men in the south west of America. John Grady Cole and Billy Parham, two cowboys of the old school, are poised on the edge of a world about to change forever. Their journeys across the border into Mexico, each an adventure fraught with fear and pain, mark a passage into adulthood, and eventual salvation. In All the Pretty Horses, young John Grady Cole, dispossessed by the sale of his family’s Texas ranch, heads across the border in search of the cowboy life, where he finds a job breaking horses, and a dangerously ill-fated romance. In The Crossing, sixteen-year-old Billy Parham captures a wolf that has been marauding his family’s ranch and, instead of killing it, decides to take it on a perilous journey home to the mountains of Mexico.These two drifters come together years later in Cities of the Plain, a magnificent tale of friendship and passion. In the vanishing world of the Old West, blood and violence are conditions of life. Beautiful and brutal, filled with sorrow and humour, The Border Trilogy is both an epic love story and a fierce elegy for the American frontier.
