Final post
251-End of Book
In the last pieces of the book we face three key points. The first one is that they encounter a man in rags who steals all of their things. The second and the most important is that the farther dies and the boy finds a man who will look after the boy. We are first cnfronted with the farther and the boy goinjg to look for things to later find a man who has stolen all of their things. To deal with that they find him and leave him naked on the road. I think that is harsh and at the same time its is right because the man was straving and didn't have anything, but he left them in same situation so they left him the same way. The most important bit is that the farther than gets even worse, and he dies telling the boy to continue living and doing what they have done so far. This leaves an empty feeling in the reader as there is now only one character in the story instead of two, and theis makes me feel pitiful for the boy as he is left alone. However the boy then meets another man who isn't bad, and he takes him in. the man also has smaller children and a wife as well. This brings reliefe to the reader as we now know that the boy is no longer alone. The story ends there.Overall, 'The Road' was a very good and thrilling book, which would grip you for a long time. Even though it does have areas of gore and violence, which makes up quite a chunk of the description, The book itself isn't that bad and it is very mature as it doesn't have any childish and playful language and descriptions within it. Finally, I enjoyed the book a lot and i learnt from it that you should treasure every single possible thing that you have, because one day it all might disappear leaving you with nothing. This is the end of my blog and I hope you enjoyed reading it so far.
