The Man in the High Castle

Some months ago, I watched the whole Amazon show with the same name, and I really liked it. That’s why I had high hopes for the book, and since it was written by Philip K. Dick, I knew it wouldn’t let me down.
And indeed I am not!
This book takes us to a world where the Axis ruled, a world that is fortunately far from the present (and hopefully for eternity). A narrative that genuinely leaves us with the question “what if?” in our minds…
I was hoping for a longer plot because I was “contaminated” by the show, but even though there was plenty of space for it, I thought the storyline was about right and stuck to the subject.
I didn’t really like the ending; it wasn’t clear enough to me that it was the end.
Putting all that aside, this is a great book by a great author with a great vision that can take the reader to a society that has changed because of one change in the history we all know.
This work is exceptional in terms of its scientific and political merits and is well worth reading.
