内容简介

In No Country for Old Men, Cormac McCarthy simultaneously strips down the American crime novel and broadens its concerns to encompass themes as ancient as the Bible and as bloodily contemporary as this morning’s headlines.

作者简介

Cormac McCarthy was born in Rhode Island. He later went to Chicago, where he worked as an auto mechanic while writing his first novel, The Orchard Keeper. The Orchard Keeper was published by Random House in 1965; McCarthy's editor there was Albert Erskine, William Faulkner's long-time editor. Before publication, McCarthy received a traveling fellowship from the American Academy of Arts and Letters, which he used to travel to Ireland. In 1966 he also received the Rockefeller Foundation Grant, with which he continued to tour Europe, settling on the island of Ibiza. Here, McCarthy completed revisions of his next novel, Outer Dark. In 1967, McCarthy returned to the United States, moving to Tennessee. Outer Dark was published by Random House in 1968, and McCarthy received the Guggenheim Fellowship for Creative Writing in 1969. His next novel, Child of God, was published in 1973. From 1974 to 1975, McCarthy worked on the screenplay for a PBS film called The Gardener's Son, which premiered in 1977. A revised version of the screenplay was later published by Ecco Press. In the late 1970s, McCarthy moved to Texas, and in 1979 published his fourth novel, Suttree, a book that had occupied his writing life on and off for twenty years. He received a MacArthur Fellowship in 1981, and published his fifth novel, Blood Meridian, in 1985. All the Pretty Horses, the first volume of The Border Trilogy, was published by Knopf in 1992. It won both the National Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award and was later turned into a feature film. The Stonemason, a play that McCarthy had written in the mid-1970s and subsequently revised, was published by Ecco Press in 1994. Soon thereafter, Knopf released the second volume of The Border Trilogy, The Crossing; the third volume, Cities of the Plain, was published in 1998.McCarthy's next novel, No Country for Old Men was published in 2005. This was followed in 2006 by a novel in dramatic form, The Sunset Limited, originally performed by Steppenwolf Theatre Company of Chicago and published in paperback by Vintage Books. McCarthy's most recent novel, The Road, was published in 2006 and won the Pulitzer Prize.

精彩书评

Seven years after Cities of the Plain brought his acclaimed Border Trilogy to a close, McCarthy returns with a mesmerizing modern-day western. In 1980 southwest Texas, Llewelyn Moss, hunting antelope near the Rio Grande, stumbles across several dead men, a bunch of heroin and $2.4 million in cash. The bulk of the novel is a gripping man-on-the-run sequence relayed in terse, masterful prose as Moss, who's taken the money, tries to evade Wells, an ex–Special Forces agent employed by a powerful cartel, and Chigurh, an icy psychopathic murderer armed with a cattle gun and a dangerous philosophy of justice. Also concerned about Moss's whereabouts is Sheriff Bell, an aging lawman struggling with his sense that there's a new breed of man (embodied in Chigurh) whose destructive power he simply cannot match. In a series of thoughtful first-person passages interspersed throughout, Sheriff Bell laments the changing world, wrestles with an uncomfortable memory from his service in WWII and—a soft ray of light in a book so steeped in bloodshed—rejoices in the great good fortune of his marriage. While the action of the novel thrills, it's the sensitivity and wisdom of Sheriff Bell that makes the book a profound meditation on the battle between good and evil and the roles choice and chance play in the shaping of a life.
--Starred Review

McCarthy’s Border Trilogy, distinguished by the award-winning All the Pretty Horses (1992), contains dark Westerns set against beautiful, bleak landscapes. His newest novel updates his character-driven plots and themes of violence and moral ambiguity. Perhaps the true sign of a master is one whose work raises debate—and this is what No Country has done. Most critics praised McCarthy’s clean, simple prose, though a few thought it too spare for such a graceful stylist. ("The man looked at Chigurh’s eyes for the first time. Blue as lapis. At once glistening and opaque. Like wet stones.") Compelling characters (even women) abound, but Sheriff Bell came off as either smart or too long winded. Finally, the violence seemed gratuitous to some. Even if No Country may be a more minor McCarthy novel, it’s still a terrifying page-turner in the vein of the Trilogy.

I
I sent one boy to the gaschamber at Huntsville. One and only one. My arrest and my testimony. I went up there and visited with him two or three times. Three times. The last time was the day of his execution. I didnt have to go but I did. I sure didnt want to. He’d killed a fourteen year old girl and I can tell you right now I never did have no great desire to visit with him let alone go to his execution but I done it. The papers said it was a crime of passion and he told me there wasnt no passion to it. He’d been datin this girl, young as she was. He was nineteen. And he told me that he had been plannin to kill somebody for about as long as he could remember. Said that if they turned him out he’d do it again. Said he knew he was goin to hell. Told it to me out of his own mouth. I dont know what to make of that. I surely dont. I thought I’d never seen a person like that and it got me to wonderin if maybe he was some new kind. I watched them strap him into the seat and shut the door. He might of looked a bit nervous about it but that was about all. I really believe that he knew he was goin to be in hell in fifteen minutes. I believe that. And I’ve thought about that a lot. He was not hard to talk to. Called me Sheriff. But I didnt know what to say to him. What do you say to a man that by his own admission has no soul? Why would you say anything? I’ve thought about it a good deal. But he wasnt nothin compared to what was comin down the pike.
They say the eyes are the windows to the soul. I dont know what them eyes was the windows to and I guess I’d as soon not know. But there is another view of the world out there and other eyes to see it and that’s where this is goin. It has done brought me to a place in my life I would not of thought I’d of come to. Somewhere out there is a true and living prophet of destruction and I dont want to confront him. I know he’s real. I have seen his work. I walked in front of those eyes once. I wont do it again. I wont push my chips forward and stand up and go out to meet him. It aint just bein older. I wish that it was. I cant say that it’s even what you are willin to do. Because I always knew that you had to be willin to die to even do this job. That was always true. Not to sound glorious about it or nothin but you do. If you aint they’ll know it. They’ll see it in a heartbeat. I think it is more like what you are willin to become. And I think a man would have to put his soul at hazard. And I wont do that. I think now that maybe I never would.
The deputy left Chigurh standing in the corner of the office with his hands cuffed behind him while he sat in the swivelchair and took off his hat and put his feet up and called Lamar on the mobile.
Just walked in the door. Sheriff he had some sort of thing on him like one of them oxygen tanks for emphysema or whatever. Then he had a hose that run down the inside of his sleeve and went to one of them stunguns like they use at the slaughterhouse. Yessir. Well that’s what it looks like. You can see it when you get in. Yessir. I got it covered. Yessir.
When he stood up out of the chair he swung the keys off his belt and opened the locked desk drawer to get the keys to the jail. He was slightly bent over when Chigurh squatted and scooted his manacled hands beneath him to the back of his knees. In the same motion he sat and rocked backward and passed the chain under his feet and then stood instantly and effortlessly. If it looked like a thing he’d practiced many times it was. He dropped his cuffed hands over the deputy’s head and leaped into the air and slammed both knees against the back of the deputy’s neck and hauled back on the chain.
They went to the floor. The deputy was trying to get his hands inside the chain but he could not. Chigurh lay there pulling back on the bracelets with his knees between his arms and his face averted. The deputy was flailing wildly and he’d begun to walk sideways over the floor in a circle, kicking over the wastebasket, kicking the chair across the room. He kicked shut the door and he wrapped the throwrug in a wad about them. He was gurgling and bleeding from the mouth. He was stranglin

非常好啊 积累知识，胜过积蓄金银。（欧洲谚语） 谦虚是学习的朋友 泰山不是垒的，学问不是吹的。天不言自高，地不语自厚。 水满则溢，月满则亏；自满则败，自矜则愚。 包子有肉，不在皮上；人有学问，不挂嘴上。 不实心不成事，不虚心不知事。不自是者博闻，不自满者受益。 虚心的人，常想己之短；骄傲的人，常夸己之长。 自赞就是自轻。自满是智慧的尽头。 如果有了胡子就算学识渊博，那么，山羊也可以讲课了。 成就是谦虚者前进的阶梯，也是骄傲者后退的滑梯。 吹嘘自己有知识的人，等于在宣扬自己的无知。 言过其实，终无大用。知识愈浅，自信愈深。 讷讷寡言者未必愚，喋喋利口者未必智。 宽阔的河平静，博学的人谦虚。秀才不怕衣衫破，就怕肚子没有货。 山不厌高，水不厌深。骄傲是跌跤的前奏。 读万卷书行万里路，怀报国志作孺子牛。 骄傲来自浅薄，狂妄出于无知。骄傲是失败的开头，自满是智慧的尽头。 说大话的人像爆竹，响一声就完了。鉴唯明，始能照物；衡唯平，始能权物。 谦虚是学习的朋友，自满是学习的敌人。 赶脚的对头是脚懒，学习的对头是自满。 虚心使人进步，骄傲使人落后。虚心的人学十算一，骄傲的人学一当十。 强中更有强中手，莫向人前自夸口。 喜欢吹嘘的人犹如一面大鼓，响声大腹中空。 人唯虚，始能知人。满招损，谦受益。满必溢，骄必败。 知识贮藏在谦虚的大海中。（朝鲜谚语） 学问多深也别满足，过失多小也别忽略。（蒙古谚语） 懂得自己无知，说明已有收获。（拉丁美洲谚语） 学问学问，不懂就问 刀钝石上磨，人笨人前学。以人为师能进步。 试试并非受罪，问问并不吃亏。善于发问的人，知识丰富。 不听指点，多绕弯弯。不懂装懂，永世饭桶。 智者千虑，必有一失；愚者千虑，必有一得。 不能则学，不知则问，耻于问人，决无长进。 学问渊博的人，懂了还要问；学问浅薄的人，不懂也不问。 井淘三遍吃好水，人从三师武艺高。 手指有长有短，知识有高有低。学无前后，达者为师。 边学边问，才有学问。若要精，人前听。 只要是有益的话，小孩的话也要听。 要学蜜蜂采百花，问遍百家成行家。 老姜辣味大，老人经验多。请教别人不折本，舌头打个滚。 怕问路，要迷路。嘴勤不走冤枉路。 不问的人永远和愚昧在一起。（东非谚语） 耳朵没有底，可以从早听到晚。（非洲谚语） 世上无难事，只要肯登攀。——毛泽东 一分耕耘，一分收获。一艺之成，当尽毕生之力。 一个不想蹚过小河的人，自然不想远涉重洋。针越用越明，脑越用越灵。 学在苦中求，艺在勤中练。不怕学问浅，就怕志气短。 才华是血汗的结晶。才华是刀刃，辛苦是磨刀石。 上如阶尽管费力，却一步比一步高。不经过琢磨，宝石也不会发光。 心专才能绣得花，心静才能织得麻。书山有路勤为径，学海无涯苦作舟。 日日行，不怕千万里；时时学，不怕千万卷。多练多乖，不练就呆。 只有努力攀登顶峰的人，才能把顶峰踩在脚下。困难是人的教科书。 汗水和丰收是忠实的伙伴，勤学和知识是一对最美丽的情侣。 学习如钻探石油，钻得愈深，愈能找到知识的精髓。先学爬，然后学走。 心坚石也穿。好记性不如烂笔头。勤勉是成功之母。 好高骛远的一无所得，埋头苦干的获得知识。百艺通，不如一艺精。 同时赶两只兔，一只也捉不到。一回生，二回熟，三回过来当师傅。 学如逆水行舟，不进则退。学习如赶路，不能慢一步。 学问之根苦，学问之果甜。学问勤中得，富裕俭中来。 注意力是智慧的门户。要得惊人艺，须下苦功夫。 只要功夫深，铁杵磨成绣花针。拳不离手，曲不离口。 常说口里顺，常做手不笨。最淡的墨水，也胜过最强的记性。 搓绳不能松劲，前进不能停顿。瞄准还不是射中，起跑还不算到达。 没有艰苦的学习，就没有最简单的发明。（南斯拉夫谚语） 谁游乐无度，谁没空学习。（法国谚语） 谁要懂得多，就要睡得少。（亚美尼亚谚语） 知识好像砂石下面的泉水，越掘得深泉水越清。（丹麦谚语） 知识需要反复探索，土地需要辛勤耕耘。（尼泊尔谚语） 学如驾车登山，不进就退。（日本谚语） 读了懂不了，用处也不大
