Outer Dark

“A dead man's dog ain't got a name.”

I don't even know what to say, it did remind me of The Road, and is not a happy time. I did read this because someone had it on a psychological horror list and hmm. I'd say grimdark for sure.

It's impossible to argue with McCarthy's prose, and the thudding dread of this is exquisite. It doesn't quite reach the heights of some of his other work for me, but still fantastic work here.
