The Man in the High Castle by Philip K. Dick (Book Analysis) : Detailed Summary, Analysis and Reading Guide

Unlock the more straightforward side of The Man in the High Castle with this concise and insightful summary and analysis!

This engaging summary presents an analysis of The Man in the High Castle by Philip K. Dick, a work of speculative fiction which imagines what the world would be like if the Allies had lost the Second World War.

At a time of mounting international tension, a mysterious novel, The Grasshopper Lies Heavy, seems to offer readers an alternative reality, and with it a small glimmer of hope. Philip K. Dick was a pioneering and prolific science writer, and is also known for his novels Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? and A Scanner Darkly.
