Product Description

Product Description

Bruce Stevens is a young buyer for a big discount house when he meets the recently divorced Susan Faine. She suggests that he might like to manage her ailing typewriter store and he leaps at the suggestion. Then he realizes that Susan was his teacher when he was in fifth grade. In spite of that, they are married within days. And then the odd compulsions and instabilities start to interfere with their plans. Milton Lumky, the paper salesman in whose area they live, is uneasy about their future . . .

4.0 out of 5 stars Mainstream, 6 Mar 2006
By Gerdas Mattias "maestrinho" (Scandinavia) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
During the 50s, PKD tried to establish himself as a mainstream writer. His litterary skill and his eye for details, empathy for the common man and ability to associate and connect situations served as well in the mainstream as in the SF-field. Yes, we do miss the opccasional androids and blob from outer space, but in this novel as in many of the other we get to experience the unique PKD "psycho-analytic" perspective tearing through the fabrics of every day life and relationships between common men and women. If you're skeptical to SF, I use to say that PKD could be a good starting point, since his similarly fantastic perspectives bridge the gap of the genres. Now, regarding this novel, if you're a hardcore SF-fan who never reads common fiction, this is a good starting point. After all, the legend only wrote 8 mainstream novels, and everyone should try a couple of them out.
