The Road by Cormac McCarthy—Book Summary—Abbey Beathan
(Disclaimer: This is NOT the original book.)
The bestselling post-apocalyptic novel about a father and a son's gruelling quest for survival.
The Road is about a father and a son's journey to the coast. They don't know if anything awaits them there but it's their last hope of survival. Armed with just a pistol and a dream, they begin their journey to the coast where they face lawless bands that stalk the road. Will they be able to complete their objective? Or is burned America going to swallow them alive?

"You forget what you want to remember, and you remember what you want to forget."—Cormac McCarthy
An adventure where almost no hope remains and the protagonists must survive in a world where almost everyone has perished. Sustained solely by love, they keep going without giving up, in hope that everything turns out they way they want. It's a touching title where you can witness how the father-son tenderness is able to keep them alive.
The Road demonstrates how corrupt people can be when they have no rules that bind them.
