Set in San Francisco in 1956, The Broken Bubble traces the ups and
downs and ins and outs of four characters who are not quite sure of
the lives they?re living. Jim Briskin, local radio DJ, his ex-wife
Pat, the young married couple Art and Rachel Emmanual ? all are
acutely observed and sympathetically portrayed. Briskin is
suspended from his job for refusing to read a particularly
repellant ad, while Art foolishly gets mixed up in a group of
absurd would-be revolutionaries. As they all get entangled and not
quite disentangled with each other, it becomes apparent they are
seeking only ? in typical Dick fashion ? to live more or less
happily - if not ever after, then at least for a while. Modest as
it may seem, it is an ambition very difficult to achieve.
