A scary, depressing book. This is the kind of story that will haunt you for months afterward. It doesn't have much of a point except to raise the question of 'how hopeless do things have to be before a person will give up life in favor of whatever peace he can find in the next world?' Although I liked Cormac McCarthy's other books I would not reccomend this one.
