Resumen del Editor

Set in San Francisco in 1956, The Broken Bubble traces the ups and downs and ins and outs of four characters who are not quite sure of the lives they’re living. Jim Briskin, local radio DJ, his ex-wife Pat, the young married couple Art and Rachel Emmanual – all are acutely observed and sympathetically portrayed. Briskin is suspended from his job for refusing to read a particularly repellant ad, while Art foolishly gets mixed up in a group of absurd would-be revolutionaries. As they all get entangled and not quite disentangled with each other, it becomes apparent they are seeking only – in typical Dick fashion – to live more or less happily - if not ever after, then at least for a while. Modest as it may seem, it is an ambition very difficult to achieve.

He was a solid novelist

PKD was a solid novelist even in his 20s. The story is disturbing and unpleasant. It includes the things that ruin his other mainstream novels. I only recommend this to people who want to read everything by PKD. This story requires the reader to approach it with a very liberal mindset.

With all of this said I am glad this book and the other PKD mainstream novels are available for those of us who want to listen to them.

I will keep this book and listen to it again sometime. But it will never be a favorite and I might never even like it.

Literary PKD

Great little tale for fans of PKD's rejected mainstream novels of the 1950s. Vivid details of 1956 about a disc jockey and his ex-wife becoming involved with science fiction fan and his wife.

More than a wast of a credit

I just finished listening to this book, and just realized that it was more than a wast of a credit. It was a complete wast of my time. This book was not like anything else I've read from Philip Dick. It is a story about a man and his ex wife, and a young couple that live in San Francisco. About their dealings and misdealings with one another.
Then as a small side story with a conspiracy theory nut, and an unrelated convention tossed in for filler.

Oh ya, I almost forgot. The conventioneers pay a stripper to get in a clear plastic bubble and roll around the floor in a hotel room.
