A review by samuelsp
The Man in the High Castle by Philip K. Dick
4.0
As always, PKD has amazing writing that never fails to enthrall me from start to finish. Alternative histories are fascinating; to look back on something that never happened, to see how it affected the future that we live in, it's all quite interesting to me.
This book could get hard to follow at points, with so many different points of view, so many cultural differences to take into account. But despite that, I still found it extremely interesting. The characters all seemed to go through major transformations by the end of the book (mentally at least), all experiencing some sort of mind break, or perhaps revelation, at their situation. Definitely something I want to reread to analyze and evaluate to get a better perspective on.
