	Reality and The Man in the High Castle
		The reader's relationship to High Castle is therefore analogous to the characters' relationship to Abendsen's novel.
		High Castle calls attention to the fact it is a fictional world; it announces, Waugh suggests, "I am make-believe." (MF 35) It lays bare perhaps the most fundamental device of all fiction: the frame that defines the story as a fictional world.
		Of all the possible worlds, the one in which the characters of High Castle are stuck would initially appear to be the worst.

		Thus freed, she is able to continue to her rendezvous with the Man in the High Castle.

		The Man in the High Castle, in its depiction of little people living small lives with honour and confusion - and in its examination of the conflicting ideas of totalitarianism and Eastern philosophy - is perhaps Dick's finest book, and one of the very best science fiction novels ever published.

	Lorenzo DeTommaso- Redemption in Philip K. Dick’s The Man in the High Castle
		In the case of Dick’s The Man in the High Castle [hereafter MHC], the large number and variety of these details have led scholars to concentrate more on Dick’s narrative technique, and less on identifying any general interpretive keys by which the novel might be understood.
		The movement of one from the domain of the sensible to that of the intelligible is often framed in the gnostic philosophies by the language of redemption and/or is conceived of as a journey or trek.
		MHC thus represents an important stage in an aspect of Dick’s philosophy that has its origins no later than Time Out of Joint (1959) and that continues, in different manifestations, to its full flowering in the VALIS trilogy of the early 1980s.

		Most of High Castle's white characters are old enough to remember America and Japan before World War II, and they are aware of Japan's colonial past; in addition, the present Japan of High Castle remains in an underdeveloped state despite Japan's colonial power.
		In The Man in the High Castle, Dick has given us a worst-case scenario in which, after centuries of colonizing of Asia, after centuries of constructing the "Orient" to suit itself, the West has produced a Japan-as-colonizer that is the mirror image of itself.

		The Man in the High Castle novel presented the ultimate hallucinatory reality for the 20th century-a reality in which the Axis powers won World War II.
		The Man in the High Castle is thus, itself, an assault on reality-a work of fiction's internal reality.
		A recent bio-novel about Dick by Emmanuel Carrere makes the point that novels such as The Man in the High Castle are very likely pretty accurate reflections of Dick's mind and often unsettled mental state; that is, he often doubted what was real in his own life timeline.
