Produktdetails
A man and a boy push a cart piled with their worldly possessions through the scorched ruins of post-apocalyptic America. Emaciated, filthy and exhausted, the pair makes painfully slow but determined progress along the road that will ultimately lead to the sea and the hope of salvation. One of the most requested books in Folio reader surveys, Cormac McCarthy’s The Road is a beautiful, harrowing and mesmerising account of the most horrific of scenarios. It earned McCarthy the Pulitzer Prize and the James Tait Black Memorial Prize, and was adapted into a critically acclaimed film. This much-anticipated new collector’s edition includes Folio author Michael Chabon’s illuminating review-essay, first published in the New York Review of Books, as well as the artwork of award-winning artist Gérard DuBois, who captures the beauty and brutality of McCarthy’s vision in breathtaking colour illustrations. Winner of the Moira Gemmill Illustrator of the Year Prize and the Book Illustration category at the V&A Illustration Awards 2022. ‘My job is to take care of you. I was appointed to do that by God. I will kill anyone who touches you. Do you understand?’

This is a superb edition of a powerful novel. The illustrations are perfect for the book and enhance the reader’s pleasure immeasurably. This is a depressing read overall, but the brilliance of McCarthy’s writing makes this dismal story exciting, moving, and, at the end, oddly optimistic. As usual, the Folio edition is a beautiful book.

There aren’t very many special / limited press versions of McCarthy’s work. This one lives up to the greatness of this story itself. Please consider additional titles from him!
