The Road is a great book. Not at all depressing. It is a tale of enduring hope in a post apocalypse world. It is the boy who has never seen the world pre disaster that embodies the best qualities of humanity. It is also a tremendous read. I was convincing that the man and the boy were doomed but found myself gripped by the narrative and desperately willing things to work out for them, for them not to be caught, not to starve.
It is a brilliant book and I would encourage anyone to read it.
Child Of God is also really good.
