About This Novel

On November 15, 2019, the fourth season of the finale of the American drama "The Man in the High Castle" was launched. The original work was written by the science fiction genius Philip K. Dick and won the Hugo Award. Liu Cixin highly recommends it! "The Man in the High Castle" uses the "Book of Changes" to guide the plot, and through interspersed descriptions of characters of different classes and identities, it tells a reversed "history" - the Allies were defeated in World War II, and the United States was divided and occupied by Germany and Japan. It explores justice and injustice, cultural inferiority and identity, as well as the consequences of fascist dictatorship and racial discrimination on human society. After Amazon adapted the book into a series of the same name, it once again made the novel a hot topic, triggering a heated discussion among viewers and readers: What would happen to the world if the Allies lost World War II?

Dick's consistent psychedelic feeling is dizzying

Read the original work after watching the American TV series

If Tokusan really fights Benzi, at least on land and in the air, Benzi will hardly have an advantage.

Even if I read this book decades later, I still feel very good reading it.

It feels like the ending of this book is not finished at the end, so I can only hope to watch the Amazon TV series of the same name to see the final ending of The World in the High Castle.
