The searing, postapocalyptic novel destined to become Cormac
McCarthy's masterpiece.
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.
