Anyone read this book? By Cormac McCarthy? I recommend it highly. Great story and very interesting typography. The book designer was Peter A. Anderson. I literally could not put the book down and finished it in 2 days.

It's about a boy and his father traveling through post apocalyptic America. McCarthy also wrote "All the pretty horses". The author makes everything seem very real and at the same time it reads almost like prose in places. Very descriptive and very rich story telling.

Story or movie about traveling and adventure is always interesting

Definitely, and when you do, let me know what you think of the typography. Its quite different from anything I've seen in a while. At first, it bugged me a bit, but then I realized how it worked with the story.

while we're on post-apocolyptic american literature, there is another book that has come out recently called PESTHOUSE, also very good
