This is my second time through "Alas, Babylon", this time for book club. It was one of the first books I read on this three year infatuation with SF and Fantasy. I wasn't writing reviews yet when I first read it, so now's my excuse to do so. Despite being a nuclear apocalyptic novel from 1959, its speculation on small town life after the Soviet Union bombs the heck out of the US still feels terrifyingly fresh and important.
