cecmillen 's review for:
The Crossing
by Cormac McCarthy
Classic Cormac. A book where characters take to the roads of Mexico and the American Southwest with questionable motives. Along the way they encounter at least a dozen archetypes (the hermit, the prima dona, the patriarch/matriarch, the senselessly violent, the headstrong adventurer, the banditos, the fool, the wealthy man, the pauper, etc.), and in each of these interactions there is an exchange of incredible depth and subtlety. These conversations leave the reader to ponder the value of every sort of lifestyle.
I think that could describe just about every McCarthy book that I have ever read. Like all the others, the crossing is masterful.
