Gladiator

by Philip Wylie

Gladiator tells the story of a man who, through the scientific genius of his father, a biologist, is endowed with superhuman strength and resilience. Despite his otherwise normal life, his extraordinary abilities set him apart from society, leading to fear and ostracization. Struggling to navigate a world that perceives him as a threat, he experiences profound loneliness and internal conflict, ultimately choosing to leave civilization behind in search of a place where his unique abilities can be accepted.
