While it is an emotional read I would encourage you to attempt it for it is also a beautiful novel. The movie is not bad but it does not do justice to the prose of Cormac McCarthy.Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00561320676355168336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5231952.post-53052960873397713362015-11-23T21:32:02.169-06:002015-11-23T21:32:02.169-06:00R.

This would have been something that I would have already read when I was bit younger. I also have avoided the film for the same reasons.<br /><br />Brian Josephhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15139559400312336791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5231952.post-22362489468453902072015-11-23T13:21:13.657-06:002015-11-23T13:21:13.657-06:00Bravo and Ditto!
