From the back cover:
A wold-wide nuclear war-launched by accident-leaves only a handful of survivors. They hope for a miracle, but they know they are doomed.
How does a person live when he knows how he is going to die? Some carry on as usual...a few destroy themselves in a last mad grasp at life.
A shocker. "The most important novel of the atomic age. if you read only one book a year, this should be the one."-Washing Post
