A haunting tale of guilt and redemption, Cormac McCarthy's gothic masterpiece Outer Dark follows a brother and sister on a dark journey through the Appalachian wilderness. 'A profound parable that ultimately speaks to any society in any time' - Time In an unspecified place in Appalachia, a woman named Rinthy gives birth to her brother's child. The brother, Culla, abandons the baby in the woods, and tells Rinthy that he has died by natural causes. When she sees his grave empty, she sets forth alone to find her son. Wracked by sin, Culla too leaves for the countryside. He will be haunted by The Trio, punishers and murderers, as the novel moves towards its eerie, apocalyptic resolution. Part of the Picador Collection, a series celebrating fifty years of Picador books and showcasing the best of modern literature. Praise for Cormac McCarthy, author of The Road and No Country for Old Men: 'McCarthy worked close to some religious impulse, his books were terrifying and absolute' - Anne Enright, author of The Green Road and The Wren, The Wren 'His prose takes on an almost biblical quality, hallucinatory in its effect and evangelical in its power' - Stephen King, author of The Shining and the Dark Tower series '[I]n presenting the darker human impulses in his rich prose, [McCarthy] showed readers the necessity of facing up to existence' - Annie Proulx, author of Brokeback Mountain
