FROM THE EDITORS
Unfolding in a terrifying future where Armageddon has been waged and lost, The Road traces the odyssey of a father and his young son through a desolate landscape of devastation and danger. Powerful, moving, and extraordinary by any standard, this is McCarthy at his greatest and gravest.

Petaloka told me about this book. I bought it today because it sounded like something I would like. I hope to read it next.

I'm starting this today.

This story was fantastic. There is so much to say about it that I don't know where to start! It's a dark tale that is at times gruesome, eerie, heartbreaking and scary, but never would I say it's depressing. Instead it's an oddly beautiful story of the love between a father and son, a tale of good vs. evil, and a story of hope and survival. I wasn't sure that I liked the ending, but the more I thought about it, the more I thought it was right. This book is so well written that I felt like I was on the road with the man and the boy. At the same time, the writing is simple and the story reads fast. There are some questions that the author lets each reader answer for himself/herself. I didn't want to put this book down.

Serious readers should read this book at least once in their lifetime. I know I'll read it a second time, which is something I don't ordinarily do. It was that good!

I will release this today for Danesnboxers' Never Judge a Book By Its Cover Challenge, week 20 {title must start with the word "The"}.

RELEASE NOTES:

I went to the Croton Library book sale, and left this near the entrance, on a post.
