Once and again McCarthy delivers a masterpiece where hopelessness and emptiness reign. I am still impressed. Some characters political remarks throughout the book made me unsure about what to think/feel, some made me feel uncomfortable and at the same time question their need on the book. But later it felt right, it contributed to the feeling of hopelessness. Also, while researching about the author I found that he was never clear about his political beliefs and on his works they always depended on the point of view of the reader, turning his works even more interesting.
