About the book

Cormac McCarthy's Cities of the Plain brings together John Grady Cole and Billy Parham, protagonists of the earlier Border Trilogy novels, as young cowboys working on a New Mexico ranch in the early 1950s. Their world of horses, ranching and the US-Mexico border is changing rapidly, while John Grady becomes involved with a young woman in Juárez. The novel explores friendship, love, violence and the disappearance of an older Western way of life.
