The group includes a forward-thinking millionaire and his family, a levelheaded Jewish scientist, a playboy, an aging African American servant and his daughter, a gigolo and the glamorous woman who has been his mistress, a beautiful Chinese girl, a young meter reader, two children, and a Japanese engineer. Fully aware of the outcome of the war that had raged briefly above them, the survivors seethe with hatred, fall into depression over their losses, rise to moments of superhuman bravery, and lapse into behavior that reflects their human weaknesses. Philip Wylie mercilessly predicts the inevitable end of a world that continues to function as selfishly and as barbarously as our own.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe earliest books by Philip Wylie (1902-71) greatly influenced twentieth-century science fiction pulp magazines and comic books: \u003cem\u003eThe Savage Gentleman\u003c\/em\u003e was the inspiration for Doc Savage, \u003cem\u003eGladiator\u003c\/em\u003e for Superman, and \u003cem\u003eWhen Worlds Collide\u003c\/em\u003e for Flash Gordon.
