The reviews on this book.......Masterpiece.....Breathtaking........Brilliant....
- Do you agree?
- Did you like McCarthy's writing style?
- Did you see the movie?
The first time I read THE ROAD, I remembered it as being a 'love story' between father and son....this time I had a hard time getting through the bleakness..........
- How did you view the story?
What did you picture caused the end? nuclear...volcanic...something from space, etc.? - Human Behavior..."unchecked"........What would happen? How would man act if he knew no one would know..........cannibles - only concerned with our own survival? etc.
- Would compassion and mercy exsist?
- Do you think the father believed his son to be "the new savior" of the world to carry on the fire, to beg for mercy for the strangers he meets?
- Was their journey a symbol for something?
- What does the book's ending suggest about the (the boy's) world to come?
- How would you have ended the book and the father.
- Do you think this book is in anyway realistic................could we be headed for a bleak ending?
