3. “A postatomic apocalypse novel as we've never seen one before, a black book of wondrous paragraphs that reads as though Samuel Beckett had dared himself to outdo Harlan Ellison.” Chicago Tribune Alan Cheuse “The book wrenches our nightmares into a gray light where they don't vanish but become more vivid.” Los Angeles Times Steve Erickson “Many authors have imagined a post-nuclear world. McCarthy is particularly well- suited to the task because he writes so beautifully and convincingly about violence, despair and men in desperate situations.” USA Today Dierdre Donahue “But even with its flaws, there's just no getting around it: The Road is a frightening, profound tale that drags us into places we don't want to go, forces us to think about questions we don't want to ask...Ultimately, my cynicism was overwhelmed by the visceral power of McCarthy's prose and the simple beauty of this hero's love for his son.” Washington Post Ron Charles “Stunning and heart-wrenching...A remarkable and unforgettable novel.” San Francisco Chronicle David Hellman Critical Praise
