Stand on Zanzibar by John Brunner.
Continuing my quest to fill in blanks in my classic sci-fi knowledge. This is one of those books that will stay with me. It packs a punch.

@KikiElara @bookstodon

Agreed.
All of John Brunner's "Club of Rome Quartet" novels pack a punch.

Stand on Zanzibar (apocalypse by over population)
The Jagged Orbit (apocalypse by polarization and guns)
The Sheep Look Up (apocalypse by pollution)
The Shockwave Rider (apocalypse by internet and computer tracking)
