Avid readers will remember I posted about Oprah's book pick The Secret. Between those pages, total darkness hung as a constant reminder that we are mortal (and that means we're very stupid).
In a perfectly timed and absolutely ironic move, Oprah has chosen a new book for her book club. There's a bit of news about her departure from a "normal" pick, but I know certain Monstronauts will feel personally violated.
Oprah's darkness (the bad kind) has now consumed his darkness (the good kind). It's only a matter of time before we see the media attention sprout such brandings as the Ford F150 LE "Cormac."

ReplyDeleteI'm gonna take the common-man approach on this one: I think that more people reading Cormac's powerful and universal stories can only be a good thing. The Road is fucking intense and its lessons about love, dedication, and preservation could do a lot of good if spread around. Who knows, maybe if enough people read it, we might be able to encourage a bit of the ol' nuclear disarming?
ReplyDeleteAnd look at this cool bookmark Oprah made us!
