The Road

The cover is printed crooked and the edge of it is cutting off part of the D in road and Y in McCarthy. The spine is damaged in 2 places. But the book is amazing as expected being a Cormac McCarthy story.

Tema muito atual.

I’ve never read a book that has more atmosphere and tension from start to finish. Superb writing

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.

はっきりは書かれていないが、核戦争後？の全てが灰に覆われた世界。男と小さな少年が南を目指して生き延びる（サバイバル）旅をする。　文章が素敵（詩的？）。ストーリテリングも巧み。最後も感動的。
