“Scars have the strange power to remind us that our past is real.”
McCarthy tells the story of John Grady Cole, a young Texan who, after his grandfather’s ranch is sold, journeys to Mexico seeking work, freedom, and a sense of belonging, only to confront love, violence, and the harsh realities of life.
