Book Review: The Road, Cormac McCarthy


Cormac McCarthy won the Pulitzer Prize for The Road in 2007. It's about a father and son travelling across America to reach the coast in a post-Apocalyptic world. I read it in one go (took about 3 hours), as it was a pretty compelling read. It was really well written, but will never be a favorite of mine as it was a real downer! I felt pretty depressed when I finished it as ultimately there was very little hope left for the human race. I'm really not sure whether I'd recommend this one or not!
