Bu çalışma, Amerikalı yazar Cormac McCarthy'nin Yol (2006) eserinde doğa, doğa ve insan uygarlığı arasındaki karşılıklı ilişki tasvirini ekoeleştiri açısından incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Romanda, McCarthy isimsiz bir baba ve isimsiz oğlunun post-apokaliptik bir dünyada hayatta kalmak için verdiği mücadeleyi anlatmaktadır. Bilinmeyen bir felaket dünyayı, kara, deniz ve havayı içeren çevreyi harap etmiş ve insan uygarlığını yok etmiştir. Baba ve oğlu, hayatta kalmak ve daha iyi bir yaşam şansı elde etmek için güney sahiline giden bir yolu izlemişlerdir. Onların yoldaki seyahati sayesinde, McCarthy doğanın ve yaşamın sonu görüşünü iletmiştir, yeryüzü post-apokaliptik yaban olarak tasvir edilmiştir, bu yabanilik, ana karakterlerin hayatta kalma mücadelelerini verdikleri soğuk, gri, , ıssız, yanmış, yaşanmaz ve ölen bir sahne olarak tasvir edilmiştir. Dahası, ana karakterlerin kanunsuz çeteler, yamyamlık, şiddet ve açlık gibi birçok engelle karşılaştığı insan medeniyetinin ilkel bir duruma düşüşünü tasvir etmiştir. McCarthy, insanlığı ve insan uygarlığını doğadan üstün gören insan merkezci iddialara meydan okuyup, geleneksel kültür ve doğa ikiliği arasındaki kesin ayrımı ortadan kaldırarak çevreyle ilgili bir bilinç yaratmayı hedeflemiştir. Onun doğa yazıları, insanın yaradılışın birbiriyle olan ilişkisini görmezden gelmesinin sonuçlarıyla ilgilidir, insanın hayatta kalabilmesi için tüm insan olmayan varlıklara bağımlılığını fark etmesi ve işleyen ekosistemle uyum içinde yaşaması gerektiğini vurgulamıştır.
