“As they travel the father feeds his son a story, the nearest that he can come to a creed or a reason to keep on going: that he and his sone are 'carrying the fire'. In what this fire might consists he can never specify, but from this hopeful fiction or hopeless truth the boy seems to intuit a promise: that life will not be always this; that it will improve, that beauty or purpose, sunlight and green plenty will return; in short that everything is goin to be 'okay', a word that both characters endlessly repeat to each other, touching it compulsively like a sore place or a missing tooth. They are carrying the fire through a world destroyed by fire, and therefore - a leap of logic or faith that by the time the novel opens has become almost insurmountable for both of them - the boy must struggle on, so that he can be present at, or somehow contribute to, the eventual rebirth of the world.”
