Earth Abides – George R. Stewart

Earth Abides is an amazing book! Loved it! I think I will enjoy this book again in years to come.
Ish, a young man, escapes a worldwide plague, and we follow his life on post-apocalyptic Earth. What happens to civilisation when man is not there to maintain it? How will a new tribe of man live with the vestiges on the old civilisation. This book is an eye opener and gets you wondering. Apparently this book is the father of all disaster stories and films, and I can certainly see why so many have tried to recreate the essence of this story.
