The Road by Cormac McCarthy - For some reason, I thought this would be a novel of southern families and disfunction. Instead I found myself reading a novel about love and goodness in a time unimaginable. Is it possible to survive in a post apocalyptic world? How would it be done? What would the dangers be? This novel, another of Peter's high school english reads, attempts to answer those questions. It's written with a richness and thoughtfulness that lends itself to many themes and discussions. Couldn't put it down.
