Vlak Sunset Limited - McCarthy Cormac - 14x21

Předobjednávka - titul expedujeme od 22.2.2013 „Román v divadelní formě“ poněkud vybočuje z celku McCarthyho díla: nejen tím, že vznikl původně jako divadelní hra (jež se v roce 2006 hrála s úspěchem na Broadwayi a v Chicagu), ale také přísnou jednotou místa a času, strohým jazykem a na kost oholenými dialogy. Setkáváme se v něm jen se dvěma postavami, označenými jako „Č...

Cesta - McCarthy Cormac (The Road)

McCarthy v románu Cesta stroze a lapidárně líčí svět po globální katastrofě - přesně domýšlí jeho podobu i jednání přeživších ve světě, kde z někdejší civilizace nezůstalo téměř nic. Děj Cesty tvoří putování otce a syna pustou, bezútěšnou krajinou, trvale zakrytou příkrovem mraků. Poutníci směřují k moři, vedeni neurčitou nadějí, jejíž chatrnost si dobře uvědomují. Většin...
