Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
I just finished "The Road" by Cormac McCarthy!. Judging by the depressing books you listed above, you would love this book!. It has to do with a nuclear war aftermath and a father trying to keep his young son alive in a world where it doesn't' make much sense to even bother!. The writing is so good I felt completely spent when I finished it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
