McCarthy, Cormac. The Road . New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 2006. 8vo., original printed blue wrappers over jacket cover. Uncorrected proof. A fine copy of the author's Pulitzer prize winning novel. McCarthy considered this work among his most personal. It is the story of a father and son struggling to survive in a post apocalyptic world gone made which McCarthy dedicated to his own son John (who was around 8 at the time of publication). Though published late in McCarthy's career, Knopf appears to have distributed very few copies of this proof (perhaps to curtail their appearance on the market before the book's publication) and they are now scarce. . Photos supplied upon request.
