Bleakness Rules the Day; Cormac McCarthy Wins 07 Pulitzer

Cormac McCarthy's "The Road" is as bleak as it gets. The end of the world. Fire. Nuclear winter. Fanaticism. Cannibalism. Blood, bones and dust.

It's McCarthy's 10th Novel, and at 73 it seems things are looking worse than ever to the author of such standouts as "All the Pretty Horses" and "Blood Meridian". Apparently the Pulitzer committe sees it that way too.

Be sure to check the articles at the NYTs for more. HERE
