yet another post apocalyptic book. the man and the boy, travel south across the gray and ash ridden lands. they encounter many many dead bodies, burnt buildings, memories of the "old world". the boy and his father have an interesting relationship, the boy is always scared and the man doesnt listen to him. they seem only to exchange a few words when they converse. i really like this book so far!

" he walked out in the gray light and stood and he saw for a brief moment the absolute truth of the world. the cold relentless circling of the intestate earth. darkness was implacable. blind dogs of the sun in their running. the crushing black vacuum of the universe. And somewhere two hunted animals trembling like ground foxes in their cover. Borrowed time and borrowed world and borrowed eyes in which to sorrow it."

genuine question that comes up when i read this:
what the heck was Cormac McCarthy going through when he wrote this?
I cant imagine it was pleasant.
"The blackness he woke to on those nights was sightless and impenetrable. A blackness to hurt your ears with listening. Often he had to get up. No sound but the wind in the bare blackened trees."

incredibly amazing writing, but it is super heavy and difficult for me to read for a long time.. i notice that almost every dialogue between the boy and his father end with the word "okay"
