It is our wish to be burnt immediately on the spot where I have carried out the greatest part of my daily work in the course of a twelve years' service to my people."

About halfway through the story, the duo finds a hidden bunker containing hundreds of useful items, as well as food and water. The magnitude of the situation is hard to visualize and comprehend without the descriptive element of imagery. McCarthy states, “The bunker was walled with concrete block.

After reading a page and a half of dialogue without quotation marks or reminders of who is speaking,…

Only going maybe 20 yards outside the bunker. Carl was a very cautious person. Which was fantastic. Every other week, we go out and get more food, medication for me, because, well, a few days after we stayed in the bunker, i started getting these killing headaches, which came mostly from stress due to the virus, and dad being on the other…

size of the walls being loaded onto the ship. The second theory is a Natzi underground bunker. Its is suggested that the room was hidden in a bunker in east Germany where the room was to be displayed. This bun kept is in a network on underground tunnels in the ore mountains of east Germany.
