О книге: The Road (Маккарти Кормак, Cormac Mccarthy); Picador, 2020

In a burned-out America, a father and his young son walk under a darkened sky, heading slowly for the coast. They have no idea what, if anything, awaits them there. The landscape is destroyed, nothing moves save the ash on the wind and cruel, lawless men stalk the roadside. Attempting to survive in this brave new world, the young boy and his protector have nothing but a pistol to defend themselves. They must keep walking.

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, The Rood is the story of a remarkable and profoundly moving journey. In his unflinching style Cormac McCarthy boldly divines a future without hope, but one in which this young family finds tenderness. An exemplar of post-apocalyptic writing, The Rood is a true modern classic: a masterful, moving and increasingly prescient novel.
