Road McCarthy Cormac
The post-apocalyptic modern classic with an introduction by novelist John Banville. They have no idea what, if anything, awaits them there. In a burned-out America, a father and his young son walk under a darkened sky, heading slowly for the coast.
Attempting to survive in this brave new world, the young boy and his protector have nothing but a pistol to defend themselves. The landscape is destroyed, nothing moves save the ash on the wind and cruel, lawless men stalk the roadside, lying in wait. They must keep walking.
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, The Road is an incandescent novel, the story of a remarkable and profoundly moving journey. In this unflinching study of the best and worst of humankind, Cormac McCarthy boldly divines a future without hope, but one in which, miraculously, this young family finds tenderness. An exemplar of post-apocalyptic writing, The Road is a true modern classic, a masterful, moving and increasingly prescient novel.
