"Science fiction grand master Philip K. Dick (1928-1982) was one of the most prolific and powerful authors of speculative fiction the genre has ever produced. He won the Hugo award for The Man in the High Castle, and the Nebula for Flow My Tears, The Policeman Said. Two popular science fiction films of the past decade were based on his work: Bladerunner and Total Recall." "In this volume Philip K. Dick continues the metaphysical and religious quest initiated by his mystical VALIS visions of 1974. The visionary archetypal material that intruded into his novels and his letters to friends, fans, and other SF writers marked a turning point in his literary career and changed his life forever. Reading Dick's letters gives new insights into the nature of his genius."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved
