About
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.
