Opis

Aliens, biblical second comings, technological meltdowns, ecological disasters, and global warfare are just a few of the backdrops for apoca-lyptic fiction, the scattered elements of humanity rising from the digital safe haven into a new world void of rules and social conformity. But what is the lure of apocalyptic fiction? Is it a need to strip ourselves of the material and technical garbage and restore our moral compass? Or is it a need to get back to the simplicity of life, and make our existence and the lives of those around us more meaningful? There is no great consensus of conclusion, just a wealth of stories to contemplate.
