Reseña del libro "The Road (Picador Classic)"

With an introduction by novelist John Banville. In a burned-out America, a father and his young son walk under a darkened sky, heading slowly for the coast. They have no idea what, if anything, awaits them there. The landscape is destroyed, nothing moves save the ash on the wind and cruel, lawless men stalk the roadside, lying in wait. Attempting to survive in this brave new world, the young boy and his protector have nothing but a pistol to defend themselves. They must keep walking. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, The Road is an incandescent novel, the story of a remarkable and profoundly moving journey. In this unflinching study of the best and worst of humankind, Cormac McCarthy boldly divines a future without hope, but one in which, miraculously, this young family finds tenderness. An exemplar of post-apocalyptic writing, The Road is a true modern classic, a masterful, moving and increasingly prescient novel.

(Rhode Island, 1933 - 2023 Nuevo México) Ganó el Premio Pulitzer de ficción por La carretera y del National Book Award por Todos los hermosos caballos. Es considerado como uno de los cuatro mayores novelistas estadounidenses de su tiempo. Su prosa densa se encasilla dentro del género gótico sureño por su complejidad estilística y la oscuridad y violencia que presenta. Sus libros La oscuridad exterior, Hijo de Dios y Suttree, han sido comparadas con la obra de William Faulkner y Flannery O'Connor.
