Written in 1955 this was Dunsany’s last major work. The narrator looks through a futuroscope to divine the fate of humanity. He learns that a nuclear holocaust has reduced humanity to a Stone Age existence where what’s left of our species must battle humans, animals and the elements to stay alive. He focuses his attention on the plight of one family and witnesses horrifying, touching and fascinating events in this brave new world of the distant future. Now a print-on-demand trade paperback.   #31304
