Miller¿s \u003cem\u003eA Canticle for Leibowitz\u003c\/em\u003e is a true landmark of twentieth-century literature¿a chilling and still-provocative look at a postapocalyptic future.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn a nightmarish, ruined world, slowly awakening to the light after sleeping in darkness, the infantile rediscoveries of science are secretly nourished by cloistered monks dedicated to the study and preservation of the relics and writings of the blessed Saint Isaac Leibowitz. From here the story spans centuries of ignorance, violence, and barbarism, viewing through a sharp, satirical eye the relentless progression of a human race damned by its inherent humanness to recelebrate its grand foibles and repeat its grievous mistakes. Seriously funny, stunning, tragic, eternally fresh, imaginative, and altogether remarkable, \u003cem\u003eA Canticle for Leibowitz\u003c\/em\u003e retains its ability to enthrall and amaze. It is now, as it always has been, a masterpiece. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blackstone Audio, Inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47104697762032,"sku":"2940169808063","price":20.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940169808063_p0.jpg?v=1769900896","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940169808063","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
