The Crossing. Knopf, 1994. First Edition. VG in like DJ.Some minor shelf wear along the bottom edge of the book.Something you might not know about Cormac McCarthy's The Crossing?The novel’s depiction of Billy Parham’s journey with the wolf was inspired by real-life stories and McCarthy’s extensive research into wolves and their behavior. McCarthy was deeply interested in the history of wolves in the American Southwest and their near extinction due to hunting and livestock conflicts. In fact, his portrayal of the wolf as a complex, intelligent, and almost mythical creature reflects his respect for nature and its untamed beauty. This attention to detail and the symbolic depth of the wolf make it one of the most memorable elements of the novel. Noted by some critics for its slower pace compared to All the Pretty Horses, The Crossing is widely regarded as one of McCarthy's most profound works, offering a deeply introspective and moving narrative.
