Summer of the Apocalypse door James Van Pelt
Very competent fall-of-the-civilization novel. It's structured into two parallel stories told in alternating chapters, one during the fall of human civilization due to a devastating epidemic, and another sixty years later, when stories about the civilization seem myths. The main character is the same in both threads: in the first as a teenager and in the second as an old man. Well-written, but I found it a bit depressing and joyless. I still enjoyed it, but I was just not in the right mood for it. It's not the novel's fault, to be fair.… (meer)
This short dystopian novel anticipated the Covid pandemic by fourteen years. It’s a thoughtful story, told throughout via shifts between the time of a pandemic and the remnant of society sixty years later. I appreciated it being set in an area I know very well. It also conveys a strong moral about our environment and connection to it, without turning to polemic.
What will happen when civilization falls? If you're lucky, you'll survive. Or would you be lucky? Looting and disease, poisons in the air and water, from all the containment broken and leaking.
This book made me miss my mom and dad. When the past is gone, it's only alive in your memories. When you're gone . . .

Somewhere between and adult and young adult adventure novel. Great plot and well told.
