The Dice Man. Its a cool title. But its an odd book to read. To be fair its not my kind of thing simply because I'm not into reading anything that has certain explicit material in it (considering the book was banned in several countries due to its subversive nature and chapters dealing with issues of rape, murder and sexual experimentation) and right from the offset it obvious this book is aimed at adults. However i gave it a try. I got bored after 50 pages. The premise of the book though is an interesting one, a man who lives his life by the roll of a dice. it has been "noted for its subversivity, anti-psychiatry sentiments and for reflecting moods of the early 1970s'. I might test the whole live life by a dice thing, but I'm obviously not going to try rape or murder and considering i dont do much interesting nowadays the results will be far from number 1 bestseller material.
Luke Rhinehart. Apparently.
There is actually a cult in America (where else) where people live there lives by rolling dice, and they worship the dice and such ideologies as chance.
