Description
*The debut novel by the author of THE ORPHAN MASTER'S SON: winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction 2013
After
trashing his cherry '72 Corvette, illegally breaking into an ancient
burial site, and snacking on 12,000-year-old popcorn, Hank Hannah finds
that he's inadvertently unleashed the apocalypse. Hank, a professor of
anthropology back in the days when there were still co-eds to ogle and
now one of only twelve humans still alive on earth, decides to record
the last days of human civilization for whomever - or whatever - might
replace us.
