Book
On the beach / Nevil Shute.
A novel about the survivors of an atomic war, who face an inevitable end as radiation poisoning moves toward Australia from the North. What is shocking about it is both the idea and the sheer imaginative brilliance with which Mr. Shute brings it off. They are the last generation, the innocent victims of an accidental war, living out their last days, making do with what they have, hoping for a miracle.
