On a ravaged Earth, fate and circumstances bring together a disparate group of characters, including a fascist with dreams of a coup, a composer who plays his instrument with his mind, a First Lady who calls all the shots, and the world’s last practicing therapist. And they all must contend with an underclass that is beginning to ask a few too many questions, aided by a man called Loony Luke and his very persuasive pet alien.

In classic Philip K. Dick fashion, The Simulacra combines time travel, psychotherapy, telekinesis, androids, and Neanderthal-like mutants to create a rousing, mind-bending story where there are conspiracies within conspiracies and nothing is ever what it seems.

I so enjoyed the amazing talent of the voice actor who red this story. He was able to capture so much with his voice. It really helped me to enjoy the story even more.

The voice actor is amazing

Sociopolitical commentary and speculative pulp. Classic Dick. Power and politics culminate in a downward spiral of violence and self destruction.
