The Road Cormac McCarthy

This is the first book I have read by him. It was loaded with religious intonations and undertones. I was impressed that he didn't break the format/ style of the book even though it would have been easy to. He kept the same distance from the characters the whole time and I admire the book a lot for that. It was a very easy read and I don't really see any reason why it shouldn't be compared to the difficulty and (sort of) subject matter of The Giver by Lowry. Of course, The Road is more graphic. It deals with dead bodies and cannibalism and.. okay so they shouldn't be compared. But it was an easy read and I'm excited for the movie to come out.
