brossura A consolidare la fama di McCarthy, da una decina d'anni riconosciuto come il vero erede di quella intensità visionaria che risale a Melville e a Faulkner, è stata questa suggestiva storia di un viaggio iniziatico. Alle soglie della seconda guerra mondiale, Billy, giovane figlio di un piccolo allevatore del New Mexico, riesce a catturare la lupa che minaccia il bestiame, ma non la lascia uccidere: cerca anzi di riportarla sulle montagne messicane, di restituirla al suo mondo, che è poi anche quello di una nonna molto amata. Comincia un lungo viaggio avventuroso che porterà Billy e il fratello Boyd a perdersi e a ritrovarsi in un paesaggio metafisico e spietato.
