"The Road" is considered one of his best works.  It won a Pulitzer prize and they made a movie based on it.

But I will not read "The Road" because when McCarthy does "dark" it gets ***** harsh.  I had to go on anti-depressants after I read "Blood Meridian".

However, "The Road" is considered one of the all-time classic dystopian novels and McCarthy is a highly skilled writer.  So if you like that genre I have to recommend it.

Probably my favorite book of all time. But you’re right on just how dark he goes. Some of the things like the tree of you know what will stay with you forever…
