Description: The Sunset Limited by Cormac McCarthy Estimated delivery 4-14 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description A rich, philosophical play, probing the deepest questions of human existence, from the author of The Road and All the Pretty Horses. Publisher Description A novel in dramatic form - set to become a film staring Tommy Lee Jones and Samuel L. Jackson. A startling encounter on a New York subway platform leads two strangers to a run-down tenement where a life-or-death decision must be made. In that small apartment, Black and White, as the two men are known, begin a conversation that leads each back through his own history - mining the origins of two diametrically opposing world views, they begin a dialectic redolent of the best of Beckett. White is a professor whose seemingly enviable existence of relative ease has left him nonetheless in despair. Black, an ex-con and ex-addict, is the more hopeful of the men - though he is just as desperate to convince White of the power of faith as White is to deny it. Their aim is no less than this: to discover the meaning of life. Deft, spare, and full of artful tension, The Sunset Limited is a beautifully crafted, consistently thought-provoking, and deeply intimate work by one of the most insightful writers of our time.
