The RoadA searing, postapocalyptic novel destined to become Cormac McCarthy's masterpiece. A father and his son walk alone through burned America. Nothing moves in the ravaged landscape save the ash on the wind. It is cold enough to crack stones, and when the snow falls it is gray. The sky is dark.

A searing, postapocalyptic novel destined to become Cormac McCarthy's masterpiece. A father and his son walk alone through burned America. Nothing moves in the ravaged landscape save the ash on the wind. It is cold enough to crack stones, and when the snow falls it is gray. The sky is dark. Their destination is the coast, although they don't know what, if anything, awaits them there. They have nothing; just a pistol to defend themselves against the lawless bands that stalk the road, the clothes they are wearing, a cart of scavenged food--and each other. The Road is the profoundly moving story of a journey. It boldly imagines a future in which no hope remains, but in which the father and his son, "each the other's world entire," are sustained by love. Awesome in the totality of its vision, it is an unflinching meditation on the worst and the best that we are capable of: ultimate destructiveness, desperate tenacity, and the tenderness that keeps two people alive in the face of total devastation.Binding Type: Hardcover

Excellent waterproof mattress cover find

Good quality. Backing is waterproof with quiet material being such. Top cover is soft cotton which is hard to find. Followed proper washing & drying per tag instructions results were good. Em confident it will have longevity in quality. Also, a perfect regular queen mattress fit.

Fantastic mattress cover!
Color: 4 Black, Size: Twin XL, Color: 4 Black, Size: Twin XL
My son's bed needed a new mattress cover. The old one was a synthetic material that held stains, had snags and runs and didn't last long.
So, I went hunting and found this one. I liked that it was quilted as well as waterproof, nice looking. I purchased one for my son's bed, black. Wow, these are really nice. They fit great and are so much more attractive, completely elevates the bed.
They make a bit of noise when being put on the bed but are completely silent when laying on the bed. No more crinkle sound!
I was so impressed I purchased one for my bed too! Never going back to the old covers. These will not disappoint.

Great purchase!
Color: 1 Gray, Size: California King
I am really happy with this mattress protector! It fit my mattress perfectly and was easy to put on without constantly slipping around. The material feels soft and comfortable, not stiff or plasticky like some waterproof protectors. I also like that it doesn’t make any crinkling noises when moving around in bed. It gives me peace of mind knowing my mattress is protected while still feeling breathable and comfortable to sleep on. Overall, great quality for the price and I would definitely buy it again.
