No Country For Old Men Rhetorical Analysis

     The novel, “No Country For Old Men,” by Cormac McCarthy, tells the tale of the great internal conflict within humans, in how they define their morals, ethics, and values. The story reflects on the audience in a way that demonstrates what society interprets as good and what they interpret as evil. The book encompasses two primary characters, Llewelyn Moss and Anton Chigurh - a man who gets caught in the middle of a drug deal gone awry and a murderous killer relentlessly chasing him through the most unseen parts of the vicinity of the United States and Mexican Border. Additionally, the story switches from multiple perspectives throughout, distributing the variety of characters and the roles they uphold. No Country for Old Men subverts from typical and traditional Western characteristics of the genre and takes on a more Neo-Western approach, all the while incorporating more modern and late-contemporary aspects, such as a mystery plot, prominent female characters, and a somewhat industrial setting.
