Reading Tilt (Emma Patter) and am loving it. I have read The Painted Bird and The Road several times each. Any other books about living through an apocalypse and trying to reach a destination? Not necessarily sci fi or magical, but just people navigating unusual circumstances in the attempt to reach a goal.
Another example of this, although it’s a movie, is Eli Roth’s Aftershock about a group of tourists trying to find safety after an earthquake in Chile. The movie isn’t great by any means but I was enthralled by their negotiating societal breakdown.
Thank you!!

Moon of the Turning Leaves by Waubeshig Rice. Its a sequel to Moon of the crusted snow. An isolated Indigenous community deals with an unknown post apocalyptic event. Moon of the turning leaves is members of the community traveling to their ancestral lands
The Stand probably fits
Station Eleven has a bit of that. It jumps around in time between the “before times” and the “present day/post-apocalypse” but I enjoyed the journey. There’s a traveling troupe of Shakespearean actors at the heart of it.
