THE ROAD - CORMAC MCCARTHY KARTONIERT (TB)

NATIONAL BESTSELLER WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE  The searing  post-apocalyptic novel about a
father and son's fight to survive.  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.  A New York Times Notable Book One of the Best Books of the Year
