That is so incredibly sweet, thank you <3 my local second hand bookstore is really good at finding books for me for really cheap, so I don't want you to waste your money on what will probably be an outrageous shipping cost. My country's postal service is also absolutely terrible, and I think your kind gift would just languish in a warehouse until the end times. But again, thank you so much!

Yep, All the Pretty Horses (one of my favourite books of all time), and Blood Meridian. I've got the third in the trilogy as well as No Country for Old Men. The latter was the first McCarthy book I tried but bounced off almost immediately, Blood Meridian was what got me hooked.

I've got most of his stuff in paperback from a clearance sale (???), but an epub sounds like a great idea, thanks!

Fair point. For the most part I can sort of get the gist of things, especially now that I know what cazador and lobo means. Thanks! :)

I am not American, and I'm not sure why you assumed so.

I'm from South Africa. And yes, from what I understand and know of Appalachia, Child of God captures so much of it.
