In the late 1930s, sixteen-year-old Billy Parham captures a she-wolf that has been marauding his family's ranch. But instead of killing it, he decides to take it back to the mountains of Mexico. With that crossing, he begins an arduous and often dreamlike journey into a country where men meet ghosts and violence strikes as suddenly as heat-lightning--a world where there is no order "save that which death has put there."
An essential novel by any measure, The Crossing is luminous and appalling, a book that touches, stops, and starts the heart and mind at once.

好苦好虐，从头到尾都是在失去，在被放逐，在接受悲剧，无论怎样苦行跋涉，都无法让严肃无情的天命饶恕他一次，大段的哲学雄辩太伟大了，最喜欢的Cormac McCarthy之一。
