The Man in the High Castle is the Hugo Award winning novel of Philip K. Dick, and it is also one of the most published books with more than 28 editions. A lot has been said about this book which I cannot confirm because I have never read past chapter 3 (I tried to read it in different languages at different times). It is not my favorite.
