A Canticle For Leibowitz by Walter Miller with Brad Birzer

A monastery in the desert preserves the shattered remnants of civilisation after nuclear fire, and the relics include something chilling: the technical knowledge that could destroy the world all over again. That is the dark engine driving Walter M. Miller Jr.’s A Canticle for Leibowitz, and it is why this 1959 post-apocalyptic science fiction classic still refuses to go stale.Christians Reading Classics is a podcast from Mere Orthodoxy and is listener-supported.
