TASK 2:
5+5=1

  •  McCarthy has taken low cultured, low budget films with simplistic and repetitive story lines and incorporated the themes into this novel.
  • He uses simplistic language structure and then incorporates complicated vocabulary.
  • There are religious aspects within the storyline, ‘pilgrims’, Christianity, 'the child is his warrant' who he wants to take him to his death.
  •  Something dangerous is following them and the two characters of a father and son have to keep travelling. A pilgrimage to death. 
  • The novel is set in a post apocalyptic world, and the characters are trying to escape the peril and great death on their own terms.
