Plot summary

Set in a future following the destruction of industrial civilization, the story is narrated by a young man[4] who is the son of a priest. The priests of John’s people are inquisitive "scientists" associated with the divine. They are the only ones who can handle metal collected from the homes (called the "Dead Places") of long-dead people whom they believe to be gods. The plot follows John’s self-assigned mission to get to the Place of the Gods. His father allows him to go on a spiritual journey, but does not know he is going to this forbidden place.
John takes a journey through the forest for eight days, and crosses the river Ou-dis-sun. Once John gets to the Place of the Gods, he feels the energy and magic there. He sees a statue of a "god" — in point of fact, a human — that says "ASHING" on its base. He also sees a building marked "UBTREAS". After being chased by dogs and sleeping in someone's apartment, John sees a dead god. Upon viewing the visage, he has an epiphany that the gods were simply humans whose power overwhelmed good judgment. After John returns to his tribe, he speaks of the place "New York". His father tells him not to, for sometimes too much truth is a bad thing, that it must be told little by little. The story ends with John stating his conviction that, once he becomes the head priest, "We must build again."
[edit]Analysis

Cover of the play adaptation by Brainerd Duffield (1971)
Upon first reading the story, one might first think that the story is set somewhere in the Middle East or North Africa; others surmise that the story is based somewhere in the Northeastern United States.
In the story, John talks about how he must cross mountains, the Appalachian Mountains. John travels East from the mountains to the great river, Ou-dis-sun, the Hudson River. John looks down at the river from a series of great cliffs, which may be presumed to be the New Jersey Palisades. After building a raft and floating down the river, John gets to the Place of the Gods with the great ruins. At the Place of the Gods, John comes across the remains of a statue with the word "ASHING" which could be presumed to be a statue of George wASHINGton, and finds a ruined building named "UBTREAS" (the United States Sub-Treasury building on Wall Street is better known as the Federal Hall National Memorial). John walks through a building with stars on the ceiling and tunnels, this would be Grand Central Terminal. After running from the dogs, John stays in a place called the Biltmore, which would be the New York Biltmore Hotel.
Benét wrote the story in response to the April 25, 1937 bombing of Guernica, in which Fascist military forces destroyed the majority of the Basque town of Guernica during the Spanish Civil War.[5]
[edit]Influence on later writing

In 1954 Edgar Pangborn wrote "The Music Master of Babylon",[6] a post-apocalyptic story told from the point of view of a pianist living alone in a ruined New York City, and after decades of total isolation encountering two youths from a new culture which had arisen in the world, who come exploring the ruined city.
The devastated world depicted in Pangborn's story is not the same as that depicted by Benét. Still, the influence of the earlier story is evident both in the title of Pangborn's one and in many of the details.
In turn, Pangborn returned to that devastated world in many of his later writings, such as the novel Davy.
