Vejen by Cormac McCarthy

In a bleak, ash-choked postapocalyptic landscape, a father and his young son push a shopping cart as they journey south, scavenging for food and shelter while avoiding roving bands of desperate survivors; the narrative follows their daily struggle to preserve warmth, morality, and hope amid starvation, violence, and the collapse of civilization, capturing the father's fierce devotion to protecting his son and the boy's emerging compassion as they confront loss, fear, and the fragile possibility of human kindness.
