finished it this weekend. it got a lot of positive vibes on here, plus obviously great reviews and awards generally
sorry, but it was bollocks
300 pages of nothing. I kept waiting for something to happen. they spoke to approx 3 people, he kept saying to his son "yes, we will be fine and we wont kill anybody to eat them. carry the flame" etc. nice mentions of trains and cows being extinct and the way he seemed an alien to his son as he came from a different world, but that was it.
its meant to be an insight into a parent and the love the dad feels for his son. as if thats news, every parent adores their children and will do everything in their power to protect them. surely? That kind of insight a pulitzer winner does not make
if you want post apocalyptic fiction, get an xbox and play fallout 3
