Alexander Babiera's Reviews

Esteemed Scholar: Alexander Babiera Total Posts in Philip K. Dick 29 1. Favorite book and why? My favorite book would have to be "We Can Build You" by Philip K. Dick because it has a pleasant plot and it has a tinge of romanticism when the main character cannot get the love of his life at the end. 2. Least favorite book and why? I hated the book "A Scarlet Letter" by Nathanial Hawthorne because my teacher made me do these ludicrous chapter journals and reaction papers which totally ruined my reading experience. 3. Favorite scene in favorite book and why? My favorite scene in a book would have to be in "Flow My Tears, the Policeman Said" by Philip K. Dick when Felix Buckman approaches and hugs he black man in the gas station. I don't think I've ever been as emotionally affeceted like that ever when reading. 4. Favorite character and why? My favorite character would have to be Soltan Gris from the book series "Mission Earth" by L. Ron Hubbard. He is a greedy, lying, money grubbing, and eventually conforming guy. Just like me! 5. Which character do you identify most with and why? Like I said before, I like and identify with Soltan Gris the most because he has most of the same qualities as myself. 6. If you could see a sequel to one of the author's books, which would it be and what would it be about? I would want a sequel to "The World Jones Made" by Philip K. Dick where Cussick goes back to Earth with his Venusian-raised son and his son is older and has to assimilate to the new culture. 7. What do you like about author's writing style? I enjoy Philip K. Dick's unpredictable yet thoroughly affecting style of writing. I also enjoy his idiosyncratic way of describing a person's emotions. 8. What are your favorite themes of this author? I enjoy the themes that have to deal with a stuggling society under an unkempt yet controlling government. 9. What could be most improved about this authors books? I would have asked Philip K. Dick to introduce his antagonists earlier in some of his books to give me a better understanding of the current condition in the book. Reviews Flow My Tears, The Policeman Said
