#34 Earth Abides by George Stewart

A disease of unparalleled destructive force has sprung up almost simultaneously in every corner of the globe, all but destroying the human race. One survivor, strangely immune to the effects of the epidemic, ventures forward to experience a world without man. What he ultimately discovers will prove far more astonishing than anything he'd either dreaded or hoped for.

A different perspective for a post-apocalyptic saga. At first I wondered if that was due to the fact it was written in 1949. Then I realized that most post-apocalytic books I"ve read deal with many survivors while these one deals with a very small group.
