In a desperate last ditch effort to raise the level of useful debate on this forum can I put forward Cormack McCarthy's latest book "The Road" as "A jolly good read" I'm an avid fan of his works and found his offering to be dark, somber, frightening and yet ultimately hopeful. Terrific stuff, read it and see if you agree. smile.gif

I’ve read All the Pretty Horses. But you do know The Road was written 10 years ago?

You need to read the other two as well. The Road was indeed written in 2006. But, still new to me.
