The Sunset Limited A Novel In Dramatic Form by Cormac McCarthy

The Sunset Limited : A gripping philosophical drama from the legendary Cormac McCarthy Deft, spare, and full of artful tension, The Sunset Limited is a beautifully crafted play from the legendary Cormac McCarthy, author of No Country for Old Men and Blood Meridian. A startling encounter on a New York subway platform leads two strangers to a run-down tenement where a life or death decision must be made. In that small apartment, the two men, known as 'Black' and 'White', begin a conversation that leads each back through his own history. White is a professor whose seemingly enviable existence has left him in despair. Black, an ex-con recovering from drug addiction, is the more hopeful of the men. He is desperate to convince White of the power of faith, while White is equally desperate to deny it. Between them, they hope to discover the meaning of life itself in this compelling exploration of existentialism, nihilism, and the human condition.
