(#165380) THIS IS THE WAY THE WORLD ENDS. James Morrow.

THIS IS THE WAY THE WORLD ENDS. New York: Henry Holt and Company, [1986]. Octavo, cloth-backed boards. First edition. "... soon after the book begins, the nuclear Holocaust of World War Three kills all but a few, who are then transported via submarine to Antarctica, where they are put on trial by the "unadmitted" -- those souls who will now never be born. As an idea it is perhaps more effective in paraphrase than within the constraints of a fictional narrative, though the decency of the book clearly transcends the inevitable disembodiedness of its message." - GS/JC, SFE (online). 1986 Nebula nominee. Runner-up for the 1987 John W. Campbell Award. Anatomy of Wonder (2004) II-789. Broderick and Di Filippo, Science Fiction: The 101 Best Novels, 1985-2010 #5. A fine copy in fine dust jacket. (#165380).
