No Country for Old Men

Llewelyn Moss hunting antelope near the Rio Grande stumbles upon a transaction gone horribly wrong. Finding bullet-ridden bodies several kilos of heroin and a caseload of cash he faces a choice - leave the scene as he found it or cut the money and run. Choosing the latter he knows will change everything. And so begins a terrifying chain of events in which each participant attempts to answer the question posed by the remorseless killer-for-hire Anton Chigurh: how does a man decide in what order to abandon his life? This edition is part of the Picador Collection a new list of the best in contemporary literature published in Picador’s 50th Anniversary year. McCarthy’s eagerly anticipated new novels The Passenger and Stella Maris will be published by Picador in October 2022.
