Absolutely batshit in the best way. Annotated by my lovely girlfriend, and that really let me linger on Morrison's prose. Thick and sweet as molasses, electric and violent as a defibrillator. G-ddamn.
It's strange to rate this, considering. I don't have words for it- just numbness.
Like all of McCarthy's work, The Road is packed to the brim with language so achingly beautiful alongside events so cruelly terrible it's hard to swallow. Yet all the same you cannot help but swallow. Lyrical, stuttering, soulwrenching. This left me empty and cold, which is exactly what I look for in novels.
Better Palahniuk than I've read in a while but still left me feeling like it was too long and not doing enough with its pages.
