THE ROAD - CORMAC MCCARTHY KARTONIERT (TB)

A 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.
