Mr. Sammler's Planet by Saul Bellow $4 Fawcett Crest Books (1971) This is not science fiction but due to the nature of the book I feel it warrants a place here. A Holocaust survivor, intellectual, and occasional lecturer at Columbia University in 1960s New York City, is a "registrar of madness", a refined and civilized being caught among people crazy with the promises of the future (moon landings, endless possibilities). "Sorry for all and sore at heart", he observes how greater luxury and leisure have only led to more human suffering. Cover art not credited. .
