Tim recommends "possibly the bleakest book you'll ever read"...
"Cormac McCarthy's recent novel The Road is set in a post-apocalyptic world, where a man and his son must endure an epic journey south to warmer climes. After an unidentified nuclear event, there is no life; nothing grows. They must search for food and escape from the marauding hordes of cannibals that roam the countryside. Possibly the bleakest book you'll ever read, but also one of the best."
