Alas, Babylon by Pat Frank
4.0
This was a very interesting what-if book. What if Russia had just nuked us in the 80's?
I read this book too long ago to remember a lot of the specifics, but I do remember being frustrated at how isolated the story was. You have no idea what's going on in the rest of the country, just what is going on in this one community of people. I guess, though, that it's supposed to give you that closed-off feeling that the characters would have.
