Hey guys I need your helps 4 a moment, I've been trying to remember this book I read in high school but cant quite remember the name. I figured b.c a good number of you are in middle/high school you may know what im talking about.

The book takes place, in somewhat of a post apocalyptic world. Altough I dont think it ever gives a way society was distroyed. So its in an era where most all technology has been lost and everyone is kind of forced to basicly act the same. The protaginest (main char) is a young man, and somehow he ends up finding a cave maybe? But it ends up being an old railway tunnel. He finds a jar with a luquid and some metal ( basicly a crude battery) and is able to power a light bulb. He then runs way, taking the girl whom he likes, and they find an old house with books and such.
Thats kinda all I remeber if you have any gusses pls post them! Thanks guys!

I believe the book you are looking for is Anthem by Ayn Rand.

Good call Carmine.

Byakuya, If you liked Anthem, read Atlas Shrugged and Fountainhead. You'll either hate them or love them. ( I loved them)
