47. On the Beach - Nevil Shute *

One of the most interesting post-apocalypse stories I've every read or seen. Set in Australia one year after a nuclear war wipes out the northern hemisphere. The story follows five people through the last months of their lives, as they wait for the radiation to make its to them. Very good, though very depressing.

This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a whimper


Off to find something a good deal more cheerful to listen to next...
