Books

Update: I just ordered both after folks wrote rave reviews for each. 

Looks like it will be a coin flip to see which I read first.

I finished reading The Road this evening. I couldn’t stop once I had started. 

It laid bare the final form of human depravity. It was so crushingly bleak. And it was deeply moving.

I don't, but the father<>son relationship is a core theme in the book. 

It's incredibly sad and bleak, but also inspirational. It strips the purpose of life down to the core of fatherhood – take care of your children above all else and prepare them to stand against the harshness of the world after you are gone.

I tried to find great books on the relationships between fathers and sons and this was one of the only ones that came up. Haven't pulled the trigger on it yet because idk how sad I want to be. Any advice? Do you have kids?

Looking forward to reading it. I can’t believe it took me this long in life to discover his writing.

I think Blood Meridian is McCarthy’s best book, but this is a very close second.

Greatly. Thanks for your thoughts on the two books. 

Blood Meridian is up next after a novel intermission to do some non-fiction reading
