Title: Only for those who've never read McCarthy's previous novels
Product review: Not a fan of this book. I enjoyed Cormac's previous novels, including "Blood Meridian", "All the Pretty Horses" and "The Crossing", which is my favorite, but I was bored out of my mind with this novel. The unimaginative apocalyptic world or the dynamic between the father and the son weren't enough to sustain my interest. What kind of conversation did the father and son have? Example:Son: I'm cold.Father: I know.That's about it. It's just an exercise in metaphors, and a pretty obvious one at that. A real disappointment because it just pales in comparison with his other novels, which are so textured and layered, they're amazing. If you've never read any of McCarthy's previous novels, you might find it good.
