This is a novel of the post-atomic age, when civilization has been almost completely destroyed and the only people who remain are widely scattered "islands of humanity" living very much the way they did in the Stone Age. The author was one of the most highly regarded Catholic book critics in the United States in the last century. As the story opens we encounter Kevin, youngest of what seems to be the last nine men on earth. Foraging for food around the entrance to his cave, he wonders whether he is destined to be earth s last survivor. In spite of the wretched life of the past many years there is in Kevin the desire to go forth in search of what is left. Somewhere is the City the giant of industry stretched prone upon the earth. Was New York the name old Urban called it? His quest for the felled giant leads him far afield. There is wonderment in his discovery of clues to the blasted past. And there is rekindled hope for the survival of humanity when he encounters other human beings like himself, and among them women and children. Love brings meaning into Kevin s life and he establishes a home; and the Church, too, finds a home in a place strangely reminiscent of its past. The events of the book proclaim once more that civilization may be reduced to rubble and ashes, but out of the new catacombs there will rise a Church gloriously intact. Sewn signatures, 60 lb. cream paper, hardcover, 250 pages
