I actually just got the book last week after hearing an interview on the radio and the mentioned “the road” and I realized I’d read it in high school.

Now I have a daughter and am also wondering how different it may seem on this reading of the book…

All I remember about The Road is that I didn't enjoy it in high school at all. An incredibly bleak walk, is really all I remember.

Maybe I'd appreciate it more now.
