## Description

WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE • NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A searing, post-apocalyptic novel about a father and son's fight to survive, this "tale of survival and the miracle of goodness only adds to McCarthy's stature as a living master. It's gripping, frightening and, ultimately, beautiful" ( San Francisco Chronicle ). • From the bestselling author of The Passenger A father and his son walk alone through burned America. Nothing moves in the ravaged landscape save the ash on the wind. It is cold enough to crack stones, and when the snow falls it is gray. The sky is dark. Their destination is the coast, although they don't know what, if anything, awaits them there. They have nothing; just a pistol to defend themselves against the lawless bands that stalk the road, the clothes they are wearing, a cart of scavenged food—and each other. The Road is the profoundly moving story of a journey. It boldly imagines a future in which no hope remains, but in which the father and his son, "each the other's world entire," are sustained by love. Awesome in the totality of its vision, it is an unflinching meditation on the worst and the best that we are capable of: ultimate destructiveness, desperate tenacity, and the tenderness that keeps two people alive in the face of total devastation. Look for Cormac McCarthy's latest bestselling novels, The Passenger and Stella Maris .

Review: Even in disaster, hope exists. - Cormac McCarthy’s ‘The Road’ is a dystopian classic that depicts the almost complete absence of hope in an ash-covered post-apocalyptic world. I had first listened to the audio version of the book before buying the paperback. The writing is terse, almost unemotional, and Cormac McCarthy did not give names to the father and his son. The future he depicts is frightening, and a real possibility as we humans continue to destroy the world we live in. The tale is simple, yet it works on many levels. The father and son walk along the road seeking the warmth of the south. They push a cart filled with scavenged supplies, trying to avoid starvation, and to avoid being attacked – and possibly eaten – by violent bands of survivors. I won’t reveal the book’s ending. The father and son represent two sides of a spectrum of human values and ethics. Both are fiercely protective of each other, but while the father is willing to let other people die so that they can live, his son clings to the ideal of being one of ‘the good guys.’ We can, even when stretched, avoid breaking our moral fiber. We can, it seems, maintain our ideals of genuine human decency even when the circumstances seem hopeless, and death surrounds us. The father and son’s love for each other remains strong, a burning flame that refuses to die even in the most difficult circumstances. I read the book through in one sitting, mesmerized by the slow unfolding action, the desperate desire to live, and the even more desperate desire that the pair have to cling to their values, and their love and loyalty for each other. This book is a modern masterpiece, a true classic that serves as a stark warning to humans.
Review: This review is about the book and not the content in it. - The package was not great it was just a normal desertcart paper bag so the corners of the book got slightly damaged nothing major and other than that good book, great quality paper, print is consistent and the text is very legible.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Terrific
*by P***R on 19 July 2021*

I first read the novel and then saw the movie. But the novel is a lot lot better. Words express feelings and thoughts better than visuals. The wife's parting from the man and walking into eternity in the middle of the novel, the man's death in the end of the novel after a dogged attempt to find survival and the hope awaiting the boy finally after the apocalypse are very touching. One of the very good reads.
