Today on Far Future Horizons we will once again take a foray into alternate history and glimpse the world as portrayed in Philip K. Dick’s Hugo award-winning novel “The Man in the High Castle”.
“The Man in the High Castle' is
classic in the genre of alternate history novels and inspired countless authors
to write their own alternative history scenarios of a world dominated by a
victorious Adolf Hitler.
The book tells the story of daily
life under totalitarian Fascist imperialism and takes place in 1962, fifteen
years after the end of a longer Second World War (1939–1947 in this version).
The victorious Axis Powers—Imperial Japan, Fascist Italy, and Nazi Germany are
conducting intrigues against each other in a partitioned and defeated United
States of America.
In today’s video feature, produced
by the Alternate History Hub, we analyze
the world of Philip K. Dick's 'The Man in the High Castle'.
This novel is currently being made into a four-part mini-series which began filming on October 1st of this year.
