That list pretty well covered most of them I have read and some that I haven't. One of the best books about a World After that I ever read was about a U.S. citizen that was also a private pilot. He had went on a fishing trip to the NorthWestern territories of Canada. He had flown his plane in to a remote lake in the Canadian Wilderness. He spent a month in the area fishing with no contact with any other person. When it was time to return to his normal routine, he filled his plane with fuel and headed South. His first clue that something might be wrong was when he did not hear any radio traffic. It soon became clear to him that some kind of bacteriological catastrophe had killed almost everybody.
I cannot remember the title or the author but I read it in the late 1960's or early 1970's. I would like to read it again if I could find out the author.

You know I always have that feeling when I come back from the woods. Like, what if....?
haha, too many Twilight Zone Episodes I guess.
The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood is a good one.
