A dark, dark story that leaves the reader to decide if it ended well or not. Post-apocalyptic world in which a man and his son try to make it to the ocean, in the hopes that some life is left. They move through a world of ash, foul water, and oppurtunistic humans, occassionally finding a breif respite of canned goods.
