He was a survivor: a wanderer who traded tales for food and shelter
in the dark and savage aftermath of a devastating war. But when he
borrows the jacket of a long-dead postal worker, his life changes
for ever. As he journeys from one isolated community to the next,
the old, worn uniform becomes far more than a protection against
the unrelenting cold: it's a reminder of how things were before the
world collapsed - and a symbol for how things might be again. His
story is one of a lie becoming the most important kind of truth.
Translated into 25 languages around the world, The Postman is a
powerful and affecting novel about survival of the human spirit,
from the award-winning author of EXISTENCE and The Uplift novels.
