Reviews"The most haunting evocation we have of a world dying of radiation after an atomic war." -The New York Times    "The most shocking fiction I have read in years. What is shocking about it is both the idea and the sheer imaginative brilliance with which Mr. Shute brings it off."  -San Francisco Chronicle "A novelist of intelligent and engaging quality, deservedly popular. . . . Nevil Shute was, in brief, the sort of novelist who genuinely touches the imagination and feeling." -The Times(London) From the Trade Paperback edition.
Dewey DecimalFic
SynopsisFollowing a nuclear war in the Northern Hemisphere, the inhabitants of a small Australian community await the inevitable after-effects of the bombs to reach them.

    What happens after a nuclear war brings radioactivity to Australia.

    It's a great story, but the book is not nearly as good as the movie.
