Minority Report is an incredible short story with realistic characters, a lot of symbols and ethical's messages. It's a very short story, but a very interesting plot. K.Dick immerses the reader in another dimension with three Pre-Cog. Pre-cog are able to predict the future, and more especially the murders. They work, without being aware of this – for Precrime agency.
John Anderton is the agency's director, he watches for peace in the USA, but also to maintaining the criminality rate null. So, when the Pre-cog see a murder, he has to arrest the potential murderer before he commits his crime. K.Dick succeeds in creating his own universe, with a lot of technology. In his book, he denounces the limits and drifts such a level of technology, like sending innocents to jail for example.
I love K.Dick's writing, at the same time simple and captivating. I traveled while I was reading. Magic moments. Between actions, descriptions and psychology, he manages to write a complete story. On the one hand, there is a young boy, a (pushing), and on the other hand, there is John, older, I enjoyed the contrast between the two characters.
All along the story, the reader doubt about the real enemy of John. Is it his wife ? The army ? Or someone else? Everything is staged for make the reader doubt. K.Dick twined perfectly the wheel of his novel. It's fascinating. The machination built against John Anderton is well orchestrated.
So, for a first English reading, I am very delighted. I have discovered an original novel which show the excess of human's progress.
