Cover of the book The Long Tomorrow by Leigh BrackettThe Long Tomorrow by Leigh Brackett

One of the original novels of post-nuclear holocaust America, The Long Tomorrow is considered by many to be one of the finest science fiction novels ever written on the subject. Len and Esau are young cousins living decades after a nuclear war has destroyed civilization as we know. The rulers of the post-war community have forbidden the existence of large towns and consider technology evil. However Len and Esau long for more than their simple agrarian existence. Rumors of mythical Bartorstown, perhaps the last city in existence, encourage the boys to embark on a journey of discovery and adventure that will call into question not only firmly held beliefs, but the boys’ own personal convictions. The Long Tomorrow is Trumbull County's 2020 One Book/One Community selection.

 

Book Discussion will be meeting at the Newton Falls Domino's Pizza at 12 West Broad Street this month.
