There's a good collection of short stories called Wastelands: Stories of the Apocalypse (edited by John Joseph Adams). Lots of it is pulp, but there are some really solid stories.

I know you asked for novels, but this is all I have.

This. Ballard was all over this subgenre.

Read The Drought too.
