Summary

"The Last Days of L.A." by George H. Smith is a science fiction story set in a Los Angeles teetering on the edge of nuclear war. The tale orbits around a central character plagued by vivid nightmares and an overwhelming sense of doom, mirroring the anxieties of the era. He navigates a landscape populated by equally disillusioned individuals, their conversations laced with dark humor and resignation as society crumbles around them, and who are struggling with their own mortality and fears. He attempts to warn the masses, but is met with fear and denial, reflecting the story's somber tone and highlighting the overwhelming nature of collective denial in the face of annihilation.
