The Road by Cormac McCarthy
4.0
dark reflective sad tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

Such an intense look at the human spirit and the challenging bond between a son and his papa. The dialogue between the pair is always so heartbreaking as the child slowly loses his innocence and comes to terms with the depravity and hopelessness of his situation. From beginning to end, the only thing you can hope for the two characters is that they stay together or die less grusomely than those around them.
