The Crossing

The Crossing by Cormac McCarthy is a dark and visionary novel that continues the narrative of All the Pretty Horses, blending the spirit of a classic Western with poetic remoteness. Set during the late 1930s, it follows 16-year-old Billy Parham as he embarks on a challenging journey into Mexico after capturing a she-wolf, encountering a world where violence, ghosts, and chaos prevail. Luminous yet harrowing, the story explores deep themes of loss, destiny, and the unknown.
