Some Time Never: A Fable for Supermen is a novel by Roald Dahl, first published in 1948. The book was a total flop. It was almost an adult version of his story "The Gremlins", beginning with the Battle of Britain and continuing on to the end of the world. Despite its utter failure, the book is remarkable for being the first book about nuclear war to be published in the United States after Hiroshima.
