Naturally, we are also shown how governments (those that haven’t had their parliament zombified I guess) react to the whole mess, how they attempt to raise safe havens to quarantine the uninfected from the flesh eaters, and how everyone just goes batshit crazy. This lawyer ends up being the one to chronicle humanity’s final days, and needless to say, his accounts and opinions play a big part in the story.
Meanwhile, we are presented with a lawyer who has taken up writing as a way of dealing with his wife’s recent departure to the beyond. Somewhere, somehow, a virus is released, and those coming into contact with it end up turning into zombies. Just to give you a hint of how Manel thought things would go, the only warning of the incident comes from a deeply-buried and barely-noticed story in the Russian news.
More specifically, this time around, we get to see how humanity actually deals with the outbreak, what humanity’s final moments look like. Although zombie literature has plagued our bookshelves for quite some time now with book after book detailing the gruesome journey some heroes must undertake after the fall of man and the rise of flesh-eating corpses, Apocalypse Z by Manel Loureiro, and translated by Pamela Carmell, takes a somewhat different approach to the genre.
