I saw the movie once (so sue me, I like postapocalyptic stories), but it
was long enough ago I can't remember the title. If you get a copy of
the original book "The Postman," by David Brin, it might be in there.
Excellent book, btw, all about the importance of communication in
creating and maintaining civilization. It's a shame the movie became so
overblown and made it a joke.

I am supposed to find the book that was in allegedly being read in the
film "The Postman."
It may have the work "Will" in the title, as in "willpower".
I have never seen the movie and I tried Googling everything I could
think of to no avail.
It is quite possible that the book was not a real book, but something
made up for the movie. Either way, I need the title.
Can anyone end my misery for me?
(Sometimes I imagine that I am being tested by a nasty team of game show
creators for a new show called "Stump the Librarian.")
