Tra tutte le (poche) cose che ho letto di Dick quella che forse ho trovato scritta meglio. Appassionante e inquietante racconto, un futuro cupo scritto ormai diversi anni fa ma che non ho trovato "invecchiato". Adesso mi tocca rivedere pure il film. ...more

It is a smart book. On what makes one human, on cruelty and absurdity. It is odd but not for it's own sake but to convey something.

A clever read filled with wit. The author is subtle so you have to

Very odd mix. Half thought provoking, half ludicrous.

I haven't watched the movie, so I read this without any sort of bias, or at least any bias based on the movie adaptation. However, I found it to be quite good and I was hooked on it most of the way. Only problem I personally had was the religious part but I never was really much fond of religious debates.

So a good book that is recommendable! :)

To be honest, it was a bit disappointing. I will say the concepts are great though there still feels like holes in my need for thorough explanations.
