S2E10 ~ Alas, Babylon - Part 2
from Post-Apocalyptia Hosted by Timewalkerauthor
We're back, with Part 2 of Pat Frank's 1959 classic novel, Alas, Babylon! In Part 2, Professor David Perlmutter and I talk about the makings of a truly good leader; the value of dying skills; and the power of community. We'll see our characters navigate racial issues, enforce order, and bury one of their own. And in the end, they'll ask themselves: Will they stay, or will they go? (With apologies to The Clash, of course.) This and more, in Part 2 of Alas, Babylon! Join us there, at the end of the world. Alas, Babylon has remained in print since its publication, and is available from most booksellers, in print, ebook, and audiobook form.
