   It has been so long since I read The Chrysalids that I don't remember   
   one thing you mentioned. I haven't read the other four you mentioned.   
      
   Leiber's "A Pail of Air" is a wonderful story that (I feel) fits here.   
   I also think Earth Abides and Station Eleven would fit. Earth Abides was   
   a pretty interesting read, but I found Station Eleven to be pretty boring.
