Some Time Never: A Fable for Supermen is a novel by Roald Dahl, first published in the USA in 1948. The book was a commercial failure; however, it is noteworthy as the first book about nuclear war to be published in the United States after the bombing of Hiroshima. The UK edition appeared in 1949 with the final chapter slightly rewritten and expanded. The book has never been reprinted except in a Dutch and Czech translation.
