Featured in our reading guide: Where to Start with Philip K. Dick
A man who can see exactly one year into the future becomes a dictator.
Floyd Jones's power is limited: he sees one year ahead, no more, no less. But in a world ruled by a doctrine of relativism that forbids anyone to claim absolute truth, a man who is always right is dangerous, and he rises to power.
Dick's first published novel, from 1956, already full of his obsessions with prophecy and power.
