The Road by Cormac McCarthy


Just finished re-reading this--I'm going for it--masterpiece. Even better this time. Some parts I didn't remember that are amazing:

-The man shooting someone with a flare gun.
-The man's memory about his father and his father's friends unearthing a writhing mass of snakes and setting them on fire.

That's all I have. What a book.

(Movie coming out Nov. 25, but unfortunately not until March in New Zealand)

  1. There are so many bad a double flaming snakes moments in this book.

    When you watch the movie with me for your 6th or 7th time will you pretend it's your first?
