Editorial Review:
Product Description:
In No Country for Old Men, Cormac 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.

- Ends More With a Whimper Than a Bang"No Country for Old Men" has been my introduction to Cormac McCarthy. I confess to having seen the film of the same name which I found mesmerising. The killer, Chigurh, was absolutely relentless. He was the personification of evil and a man not to be crossed.
In comparison, the book is less rewarding than the film. The scene is well established with Moss, the antelope hunter, stumbling across a major drug gang killing field in the Texas desert. It is here that he finds a suitcase ... Read More

- a complex novel that tries to do too much...If you've seen the film 'No Country for Old Men' then the book from which it was adapted will have little in the way of surprises, or actually the only surprise would be at how faithful the film adaptation was to the original story. But for those who haven't seen it, 'No Country for Old Men' is about a drug smuggling episode that went bad and its terrible aftermath of killings by a crazed monster looking for the man who stole the loot. It all takes in west Texas circa 1980. There is a sheriff who ... Read More

- A Great Read Despite Its ProblemsI like the book about as much as the movie, and the book features more scenes and dialogue. I also like how the book ties up the confusing aspects of the movie. The ending of both is still a little odd, however (somebody I know said that Sherriff Bell has Alzheimer's and that his dreams are based on actual memories of his, and I think the last part is true, but the book doesn't indicate that he has Alzheimer's).
The book is fast-paced and intriguing. The way it was written is sometimes distracting, ... Read More

- One hell of a bookI loved the movie and finally took it upon myself to seek out the source material, which I have to say is a superb read. The book clocks in at just over 300 pages and it's a really quick read. Still, the book's length and ease to get through don't take away from its power. The book is written so well that as I was reading it, I could easily imagine the Coen Brothers having absolutely no problems with adapting the book for the screen. It literally reads like a detail for detail description of the movie, of ... Read More

- No Man's LandIt wasn't a country for old men or anybody else, for that matter, if you happened to be in the wrong place at the right time and saw too much - or dared to take that which seemed up for grabs in unique opportunity. Cormac McCarthy has done a superb job in taking us inside the bloody, ruthless and savage world of the drug dealers, tapping the black mindset that goes with protecting the flow of the territorial drug lord mega money.
