RARA-AVIS: No Country for Old Men

Cormac McCarthy's hardboiled novel, No Country for Old Men just came out in paperback, and I'm blazing my way through it--I know people mentioned it months ago, but I waited for the paperback.

As long as McCarthy's style doesn't get on your nerves, you should check it out. No cowboys this time, but his clipped style works perfect in a neo-noir setting. The shootout between drug runners, a hitman, and the protagonist in a Texas motel is worth the price of admission. Anybody else reading with me?
