"And I won't forget. No matter what. Then he rose and turned and walked back to the road."
Known for his "brutal and spare" narratives, Cormac McCarthy has been called "one of the greatest living novelists" (Cowley, THE GUARDIAN). THE ROAD is an acclaimed example of his talent for crafting haunting stories; it earned the 2007 Pulitzer Prize, and was adapted into a feature film in 2009 starring Viggo Mortensen.
