Road. McCarthy K.

McCarthy Cormat is a modern American classic of the main caliber, the laureate of the Makarturovsky scholarship “For genius”, a master of complex experiences and non -standard syntax, well known to our reader with the novels “The Old Men are NO PURGE”, “BROAD MIRIDIAN” and “Border Trilogy” (“ Horses, horses... ”,“ Behind the line ”,“ Sodom and Gomorrah ”). But the most high -profile success was waiting for the late Roman of the master: “Road” received a Pulseri prize and conquered all the conceivable lists of bestsellers.

I did not slow to follow the film set by the Australian John Hillkout ("Offer", "The most drunk district in the world"); The main roles were played by Charlize Theron and Wiggo Mortensen, Nick Cave wrote music for the film. So, after the disaster, the father and son go through the scorched lands, crossing the continent.

The whole book is permeated by deep, wounding questions into the very heart. Does it make sense to live if the future is not? Absolutely not. Does it make sense to live for the sake of children? This is a novel that everyone in life is relative, that such concepts as good and evil, under certain conditions, cease to work and lose meaning.

This is a novel about what is really important in life, and how to appreciate it. And this is also a novel about death, that everything will ever end, and therefore you need to accept every day as it is. You just need to... live.
