Pre-empting novels such as the Booker Prize-winning 'Time's Arrow' by as much as twenty years, Counter-Clock world is a story of racial tensions told against the background of the year 1998 in which time flows in reverse as people are born old only to grow younger and younger. Time runs backwards in the Counter-Clock World. Old people emerge from their graves, grow to middle age, youth, adolescence and childhood to be finally unborn in their mothers wombs. The most powerful - and most feared - organisation in the world is the Library, in charge of expunging the written records of events, which have no longer happened. When a powerful black leader is reborn, the Library's one concern is to eliminate him before the renewal of racial violence tears the country apart. But in this counter-clock year of 1998 it isn't that simple! This eerie and unforgettable premise encapsulates Philip K Dick's ambitious and inimitable approach to fiction writing. The attempts of his characters to cope with the bizarre reality of a world that runs backwards while their minds run forwards like ours, operate as a stunning critique of the way in which we perceive our own civilization.

跟1960年代初跟第三任妻子和第四任妻子的關係對照起來看更有意思。這本書的開頭和結尾都不錯，中間有些流水賬的感覺……比較綫性。(纔27頁已經齣場十七個人物，四個組織，兩種藥物瞭。)

评分圖書館的偶遇，版本是voyager-books2002年第二版 ISBN 978-0-00-712770-2 最終這本書沒有讀完，放棄繼續閱讀。原因是內容不夠吸引我，前幾章的賣點不夠我繼續讀下去的動力。。。看來我還是轉去硬科幻吧。
