Cormac McCarthy spins a languid, post-Apocalyptic yarn with âThe Road.â Personally, I found the story incredibly slow moving and actually not much happens along the road. They scavenge for food and try to avoid cannibals. This novel, to my mind, is very derivative of âI Am Legend,â although it lacks several layers of fundamental dramatic tension contained within that story. The strengths of this piece lie in its fascinating mix of sci-fi and western genres, and the ashy dreamlike quality of the prose.
