Does Dick write a real resolution in his novel?

My memory is that the novel does have resolution, but I haven’t read it in decades.

I would encourage anyone to read lots of PKD stuff. His short stories are totally amazing, and the novels like Time Out of Joint and Ubik are wonderful.

Another great science fiction writer influenced by PKD is Robert Charles Wilson—every one of his novels are great stuff.

If you click on my name you will see my discussion of a bunch of science fiction classics.

Nope. The problem I have with it is the literal PC insanity. There are scenes that are so bad I wanted to retch. Like others said seasons 1 and 2 were very good. It really starts to go off the rails in season 3 but still good. First half of 4 your reaction will be, what the heck. When you start to ask yourself, why am I watching this, just quit. If you do it that way you’ll just miss the non ending and gut curdling PC.
