The Man in the High Castle

Hugo Award for Best Novel. Two Finnish Awards for Science Fiction. Polish SFinx Award. Nominated for the Great Ring award.

An iconic and relevant novel by Philip K. Dick, a remix of dystopia and alternative history. The German Reich and the Japanese Empire won World War II and divided America. The 60s have arrived, a time of stability and prosperity. A conflict between the powers is brewing, which could lead to nuclear war. Against this backdrop, the fates of a Japanese official and a Abwehr agent, a folk art dealer, a Jewish jeweler, his free-spirited wife, and a Nazi killer intertwine. At the center of the pattern is the mystical oracle "The Book of Changes" and the book banned by the Reich authorities, "And the Locusts Shall Eat", written by the Man in the High Castle. Who among them will answer the question: can absolute evil do good?

The book won the Hugo Award and was adapted by Amazon and the Dick family. "The most resonant and meticulously thought-out book by Dick." — New York Times “California's William Blake. A visionary and prophet.” — Daily Telegraph “Our local Borges.” — Ursula K. Le Guin
