Turns out that after America went into their shelters, all the surviving countries got together in the UN and agreed to treat us like an isolated island tribe in India.
The Wild Coast by Kim Stanley Robinson is basically about this; the US gets the fuck nuked out of it and then the rest of the world takes turns patrolling the US coasts to make sure nobody leaves
Is it any good? Loved the Mars trilogy but Aurora, Ministry for the Future and 2312 was disappoining.
It's one of his very early books and there isn't actually a ton that happens in it. As part of his Three Californias trilogy there was some interesting stuff but overall I'd probably consider it a pass. Though I really enjoyed Aurora and 2312, so our tastes may not necessarily align
I suppose Aurora was actually decent, just a bit anticlimatic. 2312 had a lot of memorable and cool worldbuilding but the story was almost non existing.
