In the final volume of the acclaimed Border Trilogy, Cormac McCarthy brings together John Grady and Billy Parham, the protagonists of the first two novels. Two anti-heroes marked by a past of uprooting and inner exile, struggle to maintain their individualistic and independent lifestyle in a world that is threatened by modernity. The story unfolds in 1952, on a ranch in New Mexico that is about to be expropriated by the army. In this border setting between the United States and Mexico, the lives of the protagonists will be transformed by values with which they do not identify. Billy and Grady become the true survivors of a world where loyalty, courage, effort, and connection with nature are mere memories.
