"The first novelistic masterpiece for the global warming generation. *The Road* is an American classic that instantly made McCarthy a contender for the Nobel Prize for Literature." Andrew O'Hagan, BBC Radio 4 A father and son walk across the scorched earth of America. Nothing moves in the landscape of devastation and total destruction except the ash blown by the wind. Their destination is the beach, though they have no idea what, if anything, awaits them. The two have nothing but a pistol to defend themselves from bandits, the clothes they are wearing, a cartload of scraps¿and their lives. "From this difficult escape, McCarthy conjures up the miracle of unyielding humanity. The novel is incredibly moving and moving." Chris Cliff, Sunday Times "One of the most shocking and terrifying novels I have ever read, without ever abandoning its mission of salvation. *The Road* is an intensely intimate story, a warning of what is to come." Christy Wark, Observer Books of the Year "It's hard to put down a work of such terrifying beauty. *The Road* is truly breathtaking." Tom Gati, The Times "You'll read on in a state of complete conviction, total fascination, and utter excitement. Everything the modern novel can do is here." Alan Warner, The Guardian "A masterpiece that will soon be considered a literary classic." Herald "McCarthy proves he's one of the greatest living American writers."
