Summary - The Road is about an unnamed father and son duo in a post-apocalyptic world. People have turned savage and are out to find food any way they can, but the boy and father strive to find safety as they head towards the sea. Their goal was simple: to find other people who were like them and not savage. Throughout their journey towards the sea they encounter many difficulties and problems, including the father's ever present illness looming over them.
Reflection - I thought this book was really amazing. I have always been a fan of books that are set in the not too distant future and that have elements of fear as well as compassion. I would definitely recommend 'The Road' for anybody who likes books that have a lot of different layers to them and that are a bit scary but that also have a lot of family aspects to them.
