A Great Introduction to the World of Philip K. Dick
This is the first of two volumes in the Library of America series containing novels by Philip K. Dick (1928-1982) published during the the 1960's and 1970's. At present, they represent the only volumes of the LOA series devoted to SciFi material. While I had never read any Dick, only heard about him from folks like Michael Dirda in his weekly Wednesday webpage book discussion ...

Philip K. Dick

Gollancz, 2004

This volume contains DO ANDROIDS DREAM OF ELECTRIC SHEEP? (filmed as BLADERUNNER), MARTIAN TIME SLIP, UBIK, THE THREE STIGMATA OF PALMER ELDRITCH and A SCANNER DARKLY. Taken together they represent the best of Philip K. Dick's unique imagination. In Dick's writing nothing is what it seems, our sense of the world's order is fatally undermined and mass media tells us nothing but artful lies. Films such as THE MATRIX and THE TRUMAN SHOW would not ...

Ubik: the Screenplay

Subterranean, 2008

A good read, if not a great adaptation
I was fortunate enough to get a copy of this in the 1980s, at an affordable price. It's worth searching out if you can afford it, and if you're a fan of the novel. This screenplay was commissioned by a French film maker and is written by PKD; to my knowledge this is the only screenplay Philip K. Dick ever wrote. As such it's probably not filmable, particularly for today's limited-attention ...

Ubik (Solaris)

Philip K. Dick, 2007

My vote for the best PKD novel
would be for this one. This is a PKD masterpiece. A strong convoluted story that, unlike many PKD novels, does not trail off but stays strong and sustained to the very end. All the familiar pieces, played as well as he ever did. Paranoia funny and paranoia very dark. The besieged ordinary people of the future who have apartments (conapts, sorry) that know your credit history, doors ...
