I started this book because I wanted to put myself to read the genre "post-apocalyptic". I have not been disappointed. "The Road" books rarely have both taken their name. Of course there is the story of a father and son, following the road south into a ravaged world. The father does not live, he wants to survive, for his son. The child does not survive, it just wants to live with his father, in one version of the world he has ever known, it was born after the Apocalypse. Life, survival, daily. "The Road" is also how the book is written without chapters, as paragraphs, like a long road where everything comes together, where everything is gray. I found it terribly well written and taking, but I'll intersperse my post-apocalyptic readings to unwind, too good book on the subject leaves marks ...
