Book Review/Podcast: The Penultimate Truth by Philip K. Dick
Dickheads episode coming early June!
The Penultimate Truth by Philip K. Dick
Paperback, SF Masterworks, 191 pages
Published February 2005 by Gollancz (first published September 1964)
PKD's Post nuke dystopia is about class, labor, and manufacturing of consent. With robots and simulacra leaders than Chomsky would ever have done. There are some weird story threads that come out of and go nowhere but this is great political PKD. Should make a fun podcast but we are not recording until June. Sorry for the delay.
