False Dawn, one of the first post-apocalyptic science fiction novels
to deal with an environmental collapse instead of war, tells a
compelling story of two people thrown together by chance, striving to
stay alive in a world that can no longer support a vast human
population. Seeking refuge in the Sierra Nevada, Thea and Evan have to
keep moving to stay ahead of raiding gangs and the few remaining
settlements. With devastation all around, they must decide when
survival itself may not be worth the price it demands. Among the first
American science fiction novels to use pollution and contamination
rather than atomic or hydrogen bombs as the apocalyptic device, and
set in actual California locations,?False Dawn?has come to be regarded
as an important transitional novel in dystopian science fiction.
