The Road

After the catastrophe, Father and Son walk through scorched lands, crossing the continent. All throughout the book, there are deep, heart-rending questions. Is there any point in living if there is no future? Not at all. Is there any point in living for the sake of children? This is a novel about how everything in life is relative—that concepts like good and evil, under certain conditions, stop working and lose their meaning. It’s a novel about what truly matters in life, and how to value it.

And it is also a novel about death—about the fact that everything ends someday, and therefore you must accept each day as it is. You just… live.
