Philip Dick, Man In The High Castle - Juliana Frink, The Heroine - 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 main characters of the work, Juliana Frink, who is a judo instructor living in the Pacific States of America, who has a particularly deep connection to the Oracle, the Book of Changes. She was married to Frank Frink, through whose memories and musings we learn a bit about her mindset, motivations, and appearance. Juliana has a one-night stand with an Italian ex-soldier and truck driver, Joe Cinnadella, who turns out to be a Nazi SD assassin. She kills him, and drives to warn the "man in the high castle", Hawthorne Abendsen, that agents are being sent to kill him.
