Item description from seller

238 pages.** Goodreads; After a nuclear World War III has destroyed most of the globe, the few remaining survivors in southern Australia await the radioactive cloud that is heading their way and bringing certain death to everyone in its path. Among them is an American submarine captain struggling to resist the knowledge that his wife and children in the United States must be dead. Then a faint Morse code signal is picked up, transmitting from somewhere near Seattle, and Captain Towers must lead his submarine crew on a bleak tour of the ruined world in a desperate search for signs of life. On the Beach is a remarkably convincing portrait of how ordinary people might face the most unimaginable nightmare. ** IMDB: After a global nuclear war, the residents of Australia must come to terms with the fact that all life will be destroyed in a matter of months. Wikipedia; The novel details the experiences of a mixed group of people in Melbourne as they await the arrival of deadly radiation spreading towards them from the Northern Hemisphere, following a nuclear war some years previous. As the radiation approaches, each person deals with impending death differently. ** Post Apocalyptic Dystopia Science Fiction Classic Australia; >> Cover creasing; 1 1/2" paper pull to lower paper spine; pen to interior front cover & frontend page; several interior pages are underlined in red pen. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.…
