书籍简介:
It is 1962 and the Second World War has been over for seventeen years: people have now had a chance to adjust to the new order. But its not been easy. The Mediterranean has been drained to make farmland, the population of Africa has virtually been wiped out and America has been divided between the Nazis and the Japanese. In the neutral buffer zone that divides the two superpowers lives the man in the high castle, the author of an underground bestseller, a work of fiction that offers an alternative theory of world history in which the Axis powers didnt win the war. The novel is a rallying cry for all those who dream of overthrowing the occupiers. But could it be more than that? Subtle, complex and beautifully characterized, The Man in the High Castle remains the finest alternative world novel ever written, and a work of profundity and significance.
作者简介:
“科幻鬼才”菲利普•迪克成长于西方科技文明创造出的崭新辉煌的时代。彼时，人类进入了太空，登上了月球，成功制造出第一台工业用机器人……科技的蓬勃发展也催生出主流科幻小说对人类创造力的无比自信，克拉克、阿西莫夫和海因莱因撑起了西方科幻的黄金时代。可是，迪克却反其道而行之，他的主人公迷惘于亦真亦假的世界上，挣扎于文明的陷落中，充满了对生命的依恋和对人性的追求。
《高堡奇人》是菲利普•迪克代表作之一，架空历史最杰出的经典，雨果奖最佳长篇小说。小说以《易经》牵引情节，讲述了一种反转过来的“历史”——同盟国在二战中战败，美国被德国和日本分分割霸占，集权政治与东方哲学相互碰撞，探讨了正义与非正义，文化自卑与身份认同，以及法西斯独裁和种族歧视给人类社会造成的后果。著名科幻作家韩松长文导读。
2015年，亚马逊将这部小说改编成13集系列剧《高堡奇人》，并在2016年12月出完第二季，再次让这部小说成为话题爆点，引发观众和读者热议：如果同盟国输了二战，世界将变怎样？
