The Road
Cormac McCarthy

 
McCarthy’s novel is narrated by one of the few survivors of a civilization-ending catastrophe. He and his young son are trekking along a highway, starving and freezing, trying to avoid roving armies. Their lives are saved from teetering over the edge thanks to the man’s belief that they are “the good guys.” Winner of the 2007 Pulitzer Prize in Fiction.
