CORMAC McCARTHY
PUT - THE ROAD
Otac i sin kroz spaljenu Ameriku koračaju prema obali. U opustošenom predelu ništa se ne pomera sem pepela na vetru. Nemaju ništa osim jednog pištolja kojim se brane od ljudi duž puta, odeće na sebi, kolica nađene hrane – i jedan drugog.
Uprkos svemu, "Put" je roman o nežnosti. Zastrašujuć i lep. Govori o nama, o onom najlepšem i najgorem u ljudskom biću.
The Road follows an unnamed father and son journeying together across a grim post-apocalyptic landscape, some years after a great, unexplained cataclysm has destroyed most civilization and most life on Earth. Realizing that they will not survive another winter in their unspecified original location, the father leads the boy south, through a desolate American landscape along a vacant highway, towards the sea, sustained only by the vague hope of finding warmth and more "good guys" like them, and carrying with them only what is on their backs and what will fit into a damaged supermarket cart.
