وصف الناشر
From the bestselling author of The Passenger and the Pulitzer Prize–winning novel The Road • A novel at once fabular and starkly evocative, set is an unspecified place in Appalachia, sometime around the turn of the century.
A woman bears her brother's child, a boy; he leaves the baby in the woods and tells her he died of natural causes. Discovering her brother's lie, she sets forth alone to find her son. Both brother and sister wander separately through a countryside being scourged by three terrifying and elusive strangers, headlong toward an eerie, apocalyptic resolution.

Sin and His Son
A tragic, disgusting, and yet beautifully written novel. I loved the duality of the two characters; how the girl was loved and helped by everyone, and the boy left a trail of madness wherever he walked. I think Cormac was not only telling us that our sins follow us, but that children are gifts of God. Despite the latter lesson, this novel can be extremely gruesome and difficult to read at times. 10/10
Didn't like it...
Wasn't a very satisfying read. Liked "the road" and "no country" but wished I hadn't spent 11.99 on this one.
