Set in a post-apocalyptic world ravaged by plague, this novel explores the survival of scattered bands of primitive scavengers. Its profound influence on the science-fiction genre is evident in its impact on later works, including George Orwell's Nineteen Eighty-Four and popular films like Road Warrior and Idiocracy. The narrative delves into themes of societal collapse and human resilience, making it a significant precursor to modern dystopian literature.
