I wondered if I would ever find another who has read “Earth Abides.” I think the fellow in the book had it a bit easier as most of the population had died first. If things break down for us, it’s going to be messy!
I read it many years ago and have re-read it a few times in recent years. I have also shared it with a number of people over the years.
With the exception of a few changes in technology it reads as if it could have happened last year - or next year.
The basics of life are immutable.
