![]() ![]() Awesome in the totality of its vision, it is an unflinching meditation on the worst and the best that we are capable of: ultimate destructiveness, desperate tenacity, and the tenderness that keeps two people alive in the face of total devastation. It boldly imagines a future in which no hope remains, but in which the father and his son, "each the other's world entire," are sustained by love. The Road is the profoundly moving story of a journey. They have nothing just a pistol to defend themselves against the lawless bands that stalk the road, the clothes they are wearing, a cart of scavenged food-and each other. Their destination is the coast, although they don't know what, if anything, awaits them there. It is cold enough to crack stones, and when the snow falls it is gray.
