Philip K. Dick | Laurent Queyssi, Mauro Marchesi

1 post | 2 read | 1 to read

One of the greatest writers in science fiction history, Philip K. Dick is mostly remembered for such works as Blade Runner, Minority Report, and Total Recall. His dark, fascinating work centered on alternate universes and shifting realities in worlds often governed by monopolistic corporations and authoritarian governments. His own life story seems a tussle with reality, cycling through five marriages and becoming increasingly disjointed with fits of paranoia and hallucinations fueled by abuse of drugs meant to stabilize him. His dramatic story is presented unvarnished in this biography.

What an absolutely fantastic read. Heartbreaking, insightful, and undeniably unpredictable. I had no idea how erratic, devastating, and yet strangely fascinating Philip K. Dick‘s personal life was, but now I certainly see the reflections of his life in his work. Loved this!
