Description

Winner of the 1961 Hugo Award for Best Novel and commonly regarded among the most completed, effective, and enduring classics of contemporary speculative fiction, Walter M. Burns, Jr.is A Canticle for Leibowitz is just a genuine landmark of twentieth-century literature -- a nevertheless and relaxing -sexy look in a post-apocalyptic future. In a nightmarish wrecked globe gradually awakening to the light after sleeping in night, the toddler rediscoveries of technology are privately nurtured by monks focused on the preservation and research of the documents and artifacts of the lucky Saint Isaac Leibowitz. From here the tale covers generations of prejudice, barbarism, and abuse, watching via a sharp, satirical attention the continual development of the people damned by its natural humanness to replicate its grievous errors and recelebrate its great regulations.
