Title: Good Writer...Unreadable Story
Product review: The aftermath of some apocalyptic happening is detailed in excruciatingly horrific detail while a father and son journey to a better world. I cannot blame the writing on this books boring nature; Mr. Mccarthy can obviously write very well. But the storyline, which is not original, does not really provide an interesting read. You just sort of wallow in the disaster that the world has become and wonder what will become of the father and son. Unfortunately, there is no explanation of what happened, or why. There is little explaination of where the father and son are going...and a poor explaination of why they left where they were. So, there you have it, I hate to give the story away; but that's it. I assume that the rave reviews are more about the style of describing the imagery of a destroyed world and the hope of a father. Sorry, it didnt do it for me; Putting more of story around the imagery would have made this book worth reading.
