Walter Miller: Canticle for Leibowitz (Hardcover, 1999, Tandem Library) 4 stars

Highly unusual After the Holocaust novel. In the far future, 20th century texts are preserved …

Father in law gifted me his old copy (from the 70s, and yes it smells incredible). Not sure how this one passed me by, but I love going back and visiting these sci-fi classics and seeing if I can make out the seeds of things to come.

For now it occupies an honoured position beside my bed, under the backlog stack.
