* [[BigNon LippedSequitur Alligator MomentScene]]: One scene switches to first person. Another has the man display advanced medical knowledge never mentioned again.
* [[Everyone Is Jesus in Purgatory]]: The fact that the line "carrying the fire" appears here and in ''No Country For Old Men'' hasn't gone unnoticed. One theory has it that ''The Road'' is a distant sequel to ''Old Men''. Another theory is that everyone really ''is'' in Purgatory and that the boy is their savior.
* [[Fridge Brilliance]]: The minimalistic style of writing mirrors the {{spoiler|nature of the world. There is essentially nothing left; there is no society, nature bursts into flames every now and then while the left over ash falls like snow, the skies remain gray and bleak while the sun hasn't been seen in ages, the majority of the population has gone insane, etc. That is all there is written BECAUSE that is all that is written, if you get my drift}}.
