In 'No Country for Old Men', Cormac McCarthy immerses us in a magnetic story of losers, drug traffickers, and broken dreams on the border between Texas and Mexico. Llewelyn Moss, a hunter and Vietnam veteran, stumbles upon a bloody scene of a settling of accounts between drug dealers and decides to take more than two million dollars that he finds at the scene. From that moment on, Moss finds himself caught up in a violent chase, with Wells, a former Special Forces agent hired by a cartel, and Anton Chigurh, a ruthless killer, hot on his heels. A veteran World War II sheriff also joins the search, longing for better times and hiding a painful secret. This novel is much more than a thriller, with a lyrical narrative and concise dialogues that evoke Dostoevsky, Hemingway and Faulkner.
