For 10 points, name this post-apocalyptic 2006 novel by Cormac McCarthy.
One character in this work is disturbed by a dream of a wind-up penguin, and it ends with a vision of trout whose scale patterns describe the history of the world. Another character asserts "There is no God and we are his prophets," claiming to be a ninety-year-old named Ely before admitting that he's lying. This novel's main female claims to have taken Death as her lover and presumably kills herself with the first of the (*) three bullets in her husband's revolver. The second bullet kills a bearded, masked assailant from a truck filled with gasoline drums who grabs her son, whose father later forces another knife-wielding man to strip naked at the point of his flare gun. After being shot with an arrow, that father can no longer continue his journey south with his son on the title path. For 10 points, name this post-apocalyptic 2006 novel by Cormac McCarthy.
