| Summary | "Strange Exodus" by Robert Abernathy is a science fiction novel written in the mid-20th century. It explores themes of survival and adaptation in a post-apocalyptic world where gigantic, mindless monsters consume all life on Earth. The story centers around the character Westover, who grapples with the horror of humanity's impending doom as he navigates a world transformed by these extraterrestrial invaders. The narrative follows Westover's harrowing journey as he finds himself alone in a landscape devastated by the monsters. After discovering that he can survive by living off the creatures themselves, he faces the psychological and physical challenges of existing as a parasite on their backs. Throughout his struggle for survival, he engages in thought-provoking discussions with other survivors, contemplating human nature, adaptation, and the weight of humanity's past actions in the face of overwhelming existential threats. As Westover and his companions seek a way to coexist with the monsters, they grapple with the implications of becoming "endoparasites," pondering the balance of survival and the sustainability of their new existence.
