Philip Dick, Man In The High Castle - Joe Cinnadella, Nazi Assassin - Sadler's Lectures

from Sadler's Lectures · host Lectures on classic and contemporary philosophical texts and thinkers by Gregory B. Sadler

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel The Man In The High Castle It focuses specifically on one of the characters central to the story, the Swiss Nazi assassin, on a mission to kill the "man in the high castle", Hawthorne Abendsen, the author of The Grasshopper Lies Heavy. He poses very convincingly as a bitter Italian veteran and trucker, who hooks up with Juliana Frink and proposes they go meet Abendsen. One of the interesting narrative features of this character is that we see him primarily only through his interactions with Juliana.
