Synopsis "Outer Dark"

From the bestselling, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Road - A novel at once fabular and starkly evocative, set is an unspecified place in Appalachia, sometime around the turn of the century. A woman bears her brother's child, a boy; he leaves the baby in the woods and tells her he died of natural causes. Discovering her brother's lie, she sets forth alone to find her son. Both brother and sister wander separately through a countryside being scourged by three terrifying and elusive strangers, headlong toward an eerie, apocalyptic resolution. Look for Cormac McCarthy's new novel, The Passenger.

(Rhode Island, 1933 - 2023 Nuevo México) Ganó el Premio Pulitzer de ficción por La carretera y del National Book Award por Todos los hermosos caballos. Es considerado como uno de los cuatro mayores novelistas estadounidenses de su tiempo. Su prosa densa se encasilla dentro del género gótico sureño por su complejidad estilística y la oscuridad y violencia que presenta. Sus libros La oscuridad exterior, Hijo de Dios y Suttree, han sido comparadas con la obra de William Faulkner y Flannery O'Connor.
