Now a major motion picture from Columbia Pictures starring Matt Damon, produced by Mike Nichols, and directed by Billy Bob Thornton. The national bestseller and the first volume in Cormac McCarthy's Border Trilogy, All the Pretty Horses is the tale of John Grady Cole, who at sixteen finds himself at the end of a long line of Texas ranchers, cut off from the only life he has ever imagined for himself. With two companions, he sets off for Mexico on a sometimes idyllic, sometimes comic journey to a place where dreams are paid for in blood. Winner of the National Book Award for Fiction. 'All The Pretty Horses' is a love story - novel about childhood passing, along with innocence and a vanished American age. Steeped in the wisdom that comes only from loss, it is a magnificent parable of responsibility, revenge and survival.

Um livro a ser lido no sentido figurativo

Sem dúvida um excelente livro. Acredito que a cada releitura se encontrará novas interpretações. O livro é alegórico em vários aspectos; culturais, nos personagens; na geografia e na figura do narrador. Vale muito ler!
