In Cormac McCarthyâ s The Road a father and son travel through a post-apocalyptic world in a novel of â stunning, savage beautyâ ¦ written with stripped-down urgency and fueled by the force of a universal nightmare. This is an exquisitely bleak incantationâ "pure poetic brimstoneâ (New York Times). â The Road is a wildly powerful and disturbing bookâ (Time).
