"Z for Zachariah" By Robert O' Brien.

"Z for Zachariah" " Z for Zachariah" is the title of the science fiction novel that I have been studying. It was written by Robert O' Brien which was first published in 1973 and was written during the "Cold War", wrote it.

The main character in the novel is Ann Burden, from Burden Valley, …showed first 75 words of 1042 total…

…showed last 75 words of 1042 total…of events that helps her to make a final decision to steal the radioactive wagon and safe-suit to venture out to the unknown to find a better way of living.

I certainly would recommend this novel to be read by teenagers and upwards.
