Title: Is everyone kidding?
Product review: I have read Blood Meridian and No Country For Old Men, and enjoyed them both. But The Road? I wondered about halfway through if someone had a played a joke on me. Like maybe McCarthy said, you know what, screw it. I've been writing books for years with very little recognition, so I'm going to throw out this piece of [...] and see if I can fool them. And he did. Nothing happens, but it happens over and over. It was snowing. It was dark. They built a fire. They ate a tin of peaches. It began to snow again. It reminds me of when Faulkner finally wrote a crappy novel and won a Pulitzer for it. The world never ceases to amaze me.
