Very bleak and harrowing postapocalyptic novel telling the story of a man and his young son trying to survive after a world-wide holocaust. This was a very moving story of the journey the pair take and their love for each other. In the novel, the world has basically been totally destroyed with no living animals or plants surviving. Many of the remaining humans have apparently resorted to cannibalism to survive. The novel does not say exactly what happened to destroy the earth, but you can conclude it wasn't nuclear because the water is drinkable and no one appears to be dying from radiation sickness. In any event, overall a very moving and profound story that I would recommend.
