Publisher's Summary
He was a survivor - a wanderer who traded tales for food and shelter in the dark and savage aftermath of a devastating war.
Fate touches him one chill winter’s day when he borrows the jacket of a long-dead postal worker to protect himself from the cold. The old, worn uniform still has power as a symbol of hope, and with it he begins to weave his greatest tale, of a nation on the road to recovery.
This is the story of a lie that became the most powerful kind of truth. A timeless novel as urgently compelling as War Day or Alas, Babylon, David Brin’s The Postman is the dramatically moving saga of a man who rekindled the spirit of America through the power of a dream, from a modern master of science fiction.

Neither rain, nor snow, nor sleet, nor hail.
Very enjoyable book.
Exploring a changed/unknown post apocalyptic world, dark tones and serious consequences, morally ambiguous main character with good character growth and an interesting story overall, the narrator fell flat a few times but was a good quality recording.

USA USA USA! *yawn
Meh. A very American-centric story. lots of references to how great America is / was.
An opportunity for a more realistic view of America was missed.
Female characters are written very flat compared to men.
I dunno.
I got tired of all the USA references. not written for me and my kind obviously ( not American) and sceptical of all that self praise that the USA does so well .

Excellent performance
Was a bit reluctant to read this book with memories of the movie still in my mind, but I was pleasantly surprised and certainly not disappointed.
