为什么值得读
- 原著文字张力与深度远非改编电影所能完全呈现
- 贝尔警长的开篇独白等篇段极具文学魅力
- 叙事与文风极具特色，启发了众多写作者
在这部扣人心弦的新作中，Cormac McCarthy重返他闻名遐迩的Border Trilogy的故事背景地——德克萨斯与墨西哥边境。故事设定在我们当下的时代，昔日的盗牛贼已被凶狠的毒贩取代，边陲小镇成了肆意交火的法外之地。一天，一位名叫Llewellyn Moss的普通男子发现了一辆四周尸体环伺的皮卡车。车后座上仍遗留着大批海洛因和两百万美元现金。当Moss顺手牵羊带走这笔巨款时，他引发了一场浩劫般的暴力连锁反应，即便是象征法律威严、年迈且心灰意冷的Sheriff Bell也无力扭转局势。当Moss拼命逃避

……而且文笔更好。你也可以先读最后一本（《穿过钥匙孔的风》）；它独立于主线之外，背景设定在中间某个时间点，但它是最后出版的一本。> 科马克·麦卡锡的《老无所依》？它大概能排进我读过的所有书（和看过的电影）的前五名。神作。Edit：我发现我把名字搞混了。不是 black，是《枪侠》。在德语系列里它被翻译成了 black……
…and better written. You could also read the last book first ("The Wind Through the Keyhole"); it’s separate from the main story and set somewhere in between, but it’s the final book. > Cormac McCarthy No country for old men? Its probably in my top 5 of all the books (and movies) that I read. A masterpiece. Edit: i realized i mixed the names up. Its not black, its "The Gunslinger". Its translated as black in the german series…
斩获雨果奖和星云奖的《辅助正义》挺不错，虽然可能算不上伟大。在那之前我重读了《老无所依》，科马克·麦卡锡绝对称得上伟大，我这次重读获得的乐趣远超九年前初读时。眼下我正在重读《沙丘》，这距离我上次读至少有二十年，甚至可能有三十年了……
Hugo and Nebula award winner Ancillary Justice is pretty good, though perhaps not great. Before that I reread No Country for Old Men, Cormac McCarthy is definitely great and I enjoyed it far more this time than when I read it nine years ago. Right now I am rereading Dune for the first time in at least twenty and possibly thirty years…

强烈推荐“边境三部曲”（Border Trilogy）以及《老无所依》（No Country for Old Men）。科恩兄弟对后者的改编棒极了，但比起原著还是差了点意思。
Highly recommend The Border Trilogy as well as No Country for Old Men. The Coen Brothers did a fantastic job adapting the latter, but it just can't compare to the book.
我没读过《天下骏马》，但《老无所依》绝对是我有生以来最喜欢的五本书之一。电影很棒，但确实没能完全展现出原著的神韵。贝尔警长（汤米·李·琼斯饰演的角色）的开篇独白只是书中众多……中的一段。
I haven't read All the Pretty Horse but No Country for Old Men is in my top 5 favorite books of all time. The movie is great but couldn't really do the book justice. The opening monologue from Sherriff Bell (Tommy Lee Jones's character) is just one of many in the…
……那些学生，他们被铺天盖地地抹黑。也许社交媒体真正的败坏之处，就在于它抹去了人们心中“没有社交媒体也能发生任何事”的念头。这里摘录一段《老无所依》结尾的话，反正这书和电影都很棒，引一下又何妨：“你遇到的事儿没什么新鲜的。这片土地待人苛刻。你挡不住要来的东西。并不是所有事都在等着你。那是虚荣。”
…students, who were widely smeared. Maybe the real rot of social media is how it erases in peoples' minds the idea that anything could have happened without social media. Here's a quote from the end of No Country for Old Men, because why not it's a great book & film: What you got ain’t nothing new. This country is hard on people. You can’t stop what’s comin’. Ain’t all waitin’ on you. That’s vanity.
