About this listen
When Dr. Jim Parsons awakens after a car accident, he finds himself in a future populated almost entirely by the young. But for the young to keep running the world, death is fetishized, and those who survive to old age are put down. In such a world, Parsons - with his innate desire to save lives - is a criminal and an outcast. For one revolutionary group, however, he may be just the savior they need to heal and revive their cryogenically frozen leader. When he and the group journey to 16th-century California, what they find causes them to question what they know about history and the underpinnings of their society. With the jarring immediacy of a car crash, Philip K. Dick throws both the listener and the protagonist of Dr. Futurity into a bizarre future where healing is a crime and youth rules.

One of the best
Loved this book, my 10th or 11th PKD. Do we really have the freedom to choose, when time travel is a possibility? Find out!

An enjoyable time travel story
As an early PKD novel, there was less of the dazzling inventiveness, but the time travel narrative was plotted very well.
The sociology of the world reminds me of Ursula Le Guin
