A bleak novel about the day after the (never fully explained) apocalypse. America (or at least the United States) is completely destroyed. A father and son journey across the devastated landscape, on the one road, avoiding bandits and those who’ve turned cannibal, hoping to find the sea (maybe there’s a way out, there) and other people who have not lost hope. Their love for one another is what redeems this nightmarish tale. The writing is pared down (there are no apostrophes), stark, and as simple and desolate as the plot.
