Customer Review

The thought of PK Dick is condensed in this trilogy, which includes in this edition as SIVA (1980), followed by The Divine Invasion (1981), and The Transmigration of Timothy Archer (1982) .but that would normally also include Radio free Albemuth for good measure
The first volume, SIVA, classified as speculative SF novel, is rather a treaty of cosmogony in which Dick sinterroge on the origin and meaning of existence, through the dialogue of two characters, Fat Horselover author and, as the name of the first nest nothing else quun hétéronyme Philip K. Dick. This narrative technique takes inspiration from Japanese Noh theater, in which the main character, shite (literally "doer") performs dances, often in a trance, under the gaze of waki (the one who is "on the side") that more objective role is to cue the shite in linterrogeant on the meaning of his actions.
Fat life mirrors that of the author: spirituality, drugs, madness, repeated divorces, which makes this narrative autobiography. The question arises that it is simple: if we dream of beauty, why are we condemned to live in a world so ugly? Making lexégèse dune prodigious sum of theological and scientific references, sinspirant Valentinian Gnosis, and all that is similar to it, near or far, Jewish Kabbalah, Taoism, Platonism, Jungian psychoanalysis, inflationary universe theory and holographic (we learned in the wake Wagner, making lébauche dun opera about Buddha, Die Sieger, never written, but some elements are found in Parsifal, would have had lintuition of the relativity of space-time well before Minkowski milk postulated in 1908) , the author has come to the conclusion is that if everything goes wrong, it is because God planted sest wanting to create a perfect world in his image. LA He divided into two opposing principles, much like the Ying and Yang Tao, but one of the two, the feminine principle, sest degraded and created an irrational world, one in which we live. However, do not despair. God sends his emissaries, the Messiah among other packages dondes informaTION to saints and other illuminated as Fat, to awaken to the knowledge These speculations are not without scientific basis. Recently, an article in the journal Science reported on an experiment after which the professor Ronald Hanson of the University of Technology Delft managed to transfer information of a quantum bit (qubit) to another, which is 3 meters away using the principle quantum dintrication quavait David Bohm developed his theory of the Implicit Order.
In The Divine Invasion, this is always the same theme Manichean struggle of good against evil karmic between the reappearances of ancient gods and Lord Belial, with incursions in the parallel worlds of all possibilities and that of necessity. Dick sabstient to say which is the reality.
The Transmigration of Timothy Archer is perhaps the most interesting of 3 volumes. It addresses the metaphysical meaning of suffering. "If knowledge pained by proxy, not knowing represents a genuine danger. "Says the author, who think this is an unavoidable necessity to access to knowledge.
