Episode Details

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 two of the characters in the novel, Betty and Paul Kasoura, who are a younger Japanese married couple newly stationed in the Pacific States of America. We get to see them largely through their interactions with, and in the thoughts of Robert Childan, the American antiquities and artifacts dealer. We discuss three main interactions: the first in Robert Childan's shop, the second in the Kasoura's home, and the third in Paul's office.
