Sisältää nämä:False Dawn [short story] (tekijä: Chelsea Quinn Yarbro)
Fiction.
Science Fiction.
HTML: False Dawn, one of the first post-apocalyptic science fiction novels to deal with an environmental collapse instead of war, tells a compelling story of two people thrown together by chance, striving to stay alive in a world that can no longer support a vast human population. Seeking refuge in the Sierra Nevada, Thea and Evan have to keep moving to stay ahead of raiding gangs and the few remaining settlements. With devastation all around, they must decide when survival itself may not be worth the price it demands.Among the first American science fiction novels to use pollution and contamination rather than atomic or hydrogen bombs as the apocalyptic device, and set in actual California locations, False Dawn has come to be regarded as an important transitional novel in dystopian science fiction. .Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |

Then I had to check the author's gender because the name looks like a female author's name but it certainly isn't written with any respect for women (it was a female author).
One of the main characters is female but she's written like a male writer from the 50s would write a post-nuke female... i.e. she needs to find a man to travel with, then she needs him to defend her honor re rape, then she needs him to show her that the "ways of love" are not the "ways of rape" (I guess she was a virgin... like there's any of them over age 16 anymore - hence the 50s feel).
Anyway... leaving the depiction of women aside, I had to reread sections because: what is the difference between a Pirate and a Mutie and what is the main character and what is the main character's man? They are all from different "categories" of post-nuke survivors but I couldn't figure out which was which half the time. Other than the Pirates being murderers, because, of course, it's perfectly logical - post-nuke - to drive around raping and murdering every living creature you find, right? ( )
