So good. I finished this book a couple of days ago. While I usually write a review shortly after finishing a book, I couldn't with this book. It's so rich, touching, haunting, it says something between the lines. It left me without concrete thoughts to review and required some time to let things settle in my brain. The world in this book is sparse, the writing style is sparse. It works well together. The world comes alive through the sparseness of the words. How would we react in a world that is bleak, bare, dangerous? Cormac McCarthy has a way of writing that brings the bleakness& bareness of this world alive, while somehow keeping a sliver of hope. It's wonderfully done. This is a story that will remain with me.
