    About this ebook

    The Road by Cormac McCarthy | Book Summary | Abbey Beathan

    (Disclaimer: This is NOT the original book.)

    The bestselling post-apocalyptic novel about a father and a son's gruelling quest for survival.

    The Road is about a father and a son's journey to the coast. They don't know if anything awaits them there but it's their last hope of survival. Armed with just a pistol and a dream, they begin their journey to the coast where they face lawless bands that stalk the road. Will they be able to complete their objective? Or is burned America going to swallow them alive?

    (Note: This summary is wholly written and published by Abbey Beathan. It is not affiliated with the original author in any way)

    "You forget what you want to remember, and you remember what you want to forget." – Cormac McCarthy

    An adventure where almost no hope remains and the protagonists must survive in a world where almost everyone has perished. Sustained solely by love, they keep going without giving up, in hope that everything turns out they way they want. It's a touching title where you can witness how the father-son tenderness is able to keep them alive.

    The Road demonstrates how corrupt people can be when they have no rules that bind them.

    P.S. The Road is a touching but also action-packed book that shows you a father and son's quest for survival.

    P.P.S. It was Albert Einstein who famously said that once you stop learning, you start dying. It was Bill Gates who said that he would want the ability to read faster if he could only have one superpower in this world.

      Excellent expedient if you need a quick review of the book, but having heard Mr. Brooks present and discuss the book and his findings, I heartily recommend that you read the book!! This book is deep, instructive and fulfilling, and you owe it to yourself to hear Mr. Brooks perspective on life.
    • 5/5
      I would recommend this book to anyone who doesn't mind having some pretty awful nightmares.
