About this listen

The cult classic that can still change your life…

Let the dice decide!

When a bored psychologist hands over all of his decisions to chance, making choices on the roll of a die, he transforms his life – and the world.

Because when you follow the dice, anything can happen.

Entertaining, shocking, funny, and frightening – fifty years after its first publication, THE DICE MAN remains one of the most influential and subversive cult novels of all time.

 Absurdist Coming of Age Genre Fiction Literary Fiction Metaphysical & Visionary Psychological Fiction

I was always interested in this but...

A work of genius, but not for everyone, e.g. those that can't comprehend the difference between fact and fiction.

Very well read, which even though it made this jump along to start off with, with a story/ concept that just doesn’t really advance it still became a bit of slog to finish. Still pleased I listened though.

Well read…but!

Overall it’s an interesting novel based around a wacky idea. I liked it but there are some parts that are quite dark and distasteful.

It’s a novel, it’s not an autobiography
