It can be inferred when analyzed with Tönnies’ theory that a community is constructed within the relationship between father and son, together with other characters that are involved in the narration. Accordingly, the changing process of community is demonstrated in a progressive sequence of blood-geopolitics-spirit, revealing a sense of progression in an Anthropocene context. This paper analyzes and explores the process of evolution in three dimensions reflected in the novel: construction, crisis, and the reconstruction of community. It is considered that The Road conveys powerful calls of the yearn for the survival of the individual, which can be regarded as a reflection of the human condition in reality. Meanwhile, its distinct and full-scale evolution of community process expressed in the novel also presents a referentiality to the age of Anthropocene.展开更多
