A searing, postapocalyptic novel destined to become Cormac McCarthy’s masterpiece.
A father and his son walk alone through burned America. Nothing moves in the ravaged landscape save the ash on the wind. It is cold enough to crack stones, and when the snow falls it is gray. They sky is dark. Their destination is the coast, although they don’t know what, if anything, awaits them there. They have nothing; just a pistol to defend themselves against the lawless bands that stalk the road, the clothes they are wearting, a cart of scavenged food—and each other.
The Road is the profoundly moving story of a journey. It boldly imagines a future in which no hope remains, but in which the father and his son, “each the other’s world entire,” are sustained by love. Awesome in the totality of its vision, it is an unflinching meditation on the worst and the best that we are capable of: ultimate destructiveness, desperate tenacity, and the tenderness that keeps two people alive in the face of total devastation.</p>
科马克·麦卡锡(Cormac McCarthy),美国小说家和剧作家。1933年7月出生于美国罗德岛。代表作有《血色子午线》、《边境三部曲》、《老无所依》、《路》等。《血色子午线》开启麦卡锡创作的转折点,在《纽约时报》评选的“过去25年美国最佳小说”中名列第三。《边境三部曲》引起图书界的轰动,荣膺美国国家图书奖和国家书评奖。由《老无所依》改编的同名电影力夺奥斯卡最佳影片等四项重量级奖项。这些都奠定了麦卡锡的大师地位,他因此获誉“当代最伟大的美国作家之一”以及海明威与福克纳唯一的继承者。

评分昨天拿到出版社寄来的这本新书,带回家过周末的本意是想消遣,结果夜里3点关了电脑拿它催眠的结果,就是一直不停气地看到5点钟,全部看完。 我完全被书中近乎毫无感情的短句迷住。这些短句读起来有力而直指人心,开头第一页,它们营造的范围就把我从盛夏的炎热中带入了一个寒冷...

在这荒凉的世界,继续走,不能停。
评分一场Carrying the fire的末路穷途。记忆部分处理得好。整个节奏也不错。关于善与恶、信仰与现实的讨论,变成了一种宗教般的虔信,一种仰望星空式的道德律,这是恐怕更多是作者的想当然,而非书中人物的想法。不喜欢皈依自然的倾向。
评分Carrying the fire.
评分路
评分语言简单一样可以让你绝望,接近结尾差点看哭。必读的末世小说。
