"No matter how bleak or dire, end-of-the-world scenarios appeal to us because we take meaning from the end... there's also undeniable allure to witnessing the beginning of the end and perishing alone with everyone and everything else."
I have been blazing through Paul Tremblay's bibliography this year and loving it! And I have to say that The Cabin at the End of the World is my favorite thus far. Tremblay takes the world-ending trope and makes it more intimate and terrifying. A family has to make a horrible decision of which one to sacrifice to stop the end of the world. But is it even real?
