Philip K. Dick, The Man in the High Castle (1962)Read about another book on the list.
Dick was a master of bizarro dystopias, and this alternate history is one of his most incredible. The Axis has won World War II, and we follow several characters through a fragmented, occupied America as they try to get their lives on track — and try to figure out the mystery of an alternate history novel about a world where the Allies won World War II...
The Man in the High Castle is among Jeff Somers's five best books that busted genre conventions.
