La carretera / The Road
Uno de los mejores libros del Siglo XXI según el New York Times
BESTSELLER NACIONAL• GANADORA DEL PREMIO PULITZER• Una demoledora fábula sobre el futuro del ser humano, destinada a convertirse en la obra maestra del autor.
La carretera, novela galardonada con el premio Pulitzer 2007 y bestseller literario del año en Estados Unidos, transcurre en la inmensidad del territorio norteamericano, un paisaje literalmente quemado por lo que parece haber sido un reciente holocausto nuclear.
En un mundo apocalíptico donde llueve ceniza, un hombre y un chico cruzan a pie el territorio norteamericano en dirección al sur. El hambre es mucho más que una preocupación diaria: es la medida de todas las cosas, y las bandas de caníbales asolan el país convertido en un yermo donde solo la barbarie ha echado raíces. El amor de un padre por su hijo es, sin embargo, la única luz de una tierra que ha perdido a sus dioses. Quizá el fuego de la civilización no se haya apagado para siempre.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
One of the New York Times’s 100 Best Books of the 21st Century
NATIONAL BESTSELLER• WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE• A searing, post-apocalyptic novel about a father and son’s fight to survive, this “tale of survival and the miracle of goodness only adds to McCarthy's stature as a living master. It's gripping, frightening and, ultimately, beautiful”, according to San Francisco Chronicle.
A father and his son walk alone through burned America. Nothing moves in the ravaged landscape save the ash on the wind. It is cold enough to crack stones, and when the snow falls it is gray. The sky is dark. Their destination is the coast, although they don't know what, if anything, awaits them there. They have nothing; just a pistol to defend themselves against the lawless bands that stalk the road, the clothes they are wearing, a cart of scavenged food—and each other.
The Road is the profoundly moving story of a journey. It boldly imagines a future in which no hope remains, but in which the father and his son, are sustained by love.
