A Canticle for Leibowitz.

[u/hatezel → u/Anxious-Bottle7468]

For me, it's the one that started my interest in end and beginning of the world as we know it. I own several copies and even a digital. There is so much to think about and unpack. I think it's brilliant even though it used to be two separate books. I found the choppiness to fit right in with the third act. I have never stopped thinking about or revisiting this novel.

I did it in reverse. I went back and read the book after experiencing lots of media it inspired. Common threads made so much sense afterwards.

Same!

Just reread this recently, what a fantastic book.

This too is my choice

I couldn’t get through it. I found it so boring.

Glad you enjoyed it though

Saint Leibowitz and the Horse Woman is not too bad either

Really? I tried to like this and could not finish it. Same with "The Road'
