Book Discussion. Davis Schneiderman, Provost and Dean of the Faculty and Professor of English at Lake Forest College, leads the discussion of On the Beach by Nevil Shute.
Set in the aftermath of an apocalyptic nuclear war, Nevil Shute’s bleakly powerful novel—a bestseller for decades after it was first published in 1957—follows the few survivors in a small Australian town as they wait for the inevitable fallout to catch up with them.
