Title: DePESSING
Product review: Maybe this isn't a fair review, but I was unable to finish the book. I read about fifty pages of this prize winning novel and all out got out of it was how depressing the landscape was. It's the story of a man and his boy heading south to a warmer climate after a cataclysmic event. It could have been a super volcano; an atomic attack or an asteroid impact. We are never told. Fifty pages of scenes of blackened forests and puddles of gray ash and rivers of brown muck and the dark cold earth beneath their feet.I saw no reason to go on with this story. I was already in a mild state of melancholia..
