Hey /lit/. So I've had to read the book shown in the thumbnail and I've read some response papers towards the books central topic. one paper in particular says that the novel shows Rick Deckard's last day in the business of bounty hunting, which doesn't make sense to me. For those of you who have read, or even studied the book, does it explicitly state any where in the text that Rick quit his job at the end of the book?

Not to my knowledge. Surely you would remember if you just finished reading it?

Thats what i was thinkning. Although it seems expected that Rick would quit, but i dont think he does. Mercer tells him that he should do what he does in order to attain the repect for android lives, and no where does it explicitly say, or really even suggest, that he does quit his job.

Maybe they read the sequel where he Spoiler Alert! quits his job.

Yes, it's left slightly ambiguous, but as Mercer says he'll have to do bad things wherever he goes, it makes no sense for him to quit what he does best.
