Mockingbird by Walter Tevis

This story, told in the point of view of the three main characters, is set a few centuries in our future. The human race is dying out and has even forgotten how to read. Most everything is run by moron robots. Very good and very downbeat.

Tevis wrote The Man Who Fell to Earth, one of my favorite science fiction novels. He also wrote The Hustler and The Color of Money.
