A powerful post-apocalyptic novel in which nuclear war has
devastated America. Z FOR ZACHARIAH by Robert C. O'Brien is one of
The Originals from Penguin - iconic, outspoken, first. Ann Burden
has been living alone in a valley for over a year - until Loomis, a
scientist in a radiation-proof suit, arrives. She hopes they will
be companions but his behaviour towards her becomes increasingly
threatening as he attacks her and then cuts off her food supply and
tries to bring her under his control. Although there may be no one
else alive, Ann steals his suit and leaves the valley in search of
humanity. The Originals are the pioneers of fiction for young
