Philip K. Dick : canonical writer of the digital age

"Lejla Kucukalic looks beyond the received criticism and stereotypes attached to Philip K. Dick and his work and shows, using a wealth of primary documents including previously unpublished letters and interviews, that Philip K. Dick is a serious and relevant philosophical and cultural thinker whose writing offer us important insights into contemporary digital culture. Evaluating five novels that span Dick's career - from Martian Time Slip (1964) to Valis (1981) - Kucukalic explores the intersections of identity, narrative, and technology in order to ask two central, but uncharted "Dickian" questions: What is reality? And what is human?"--BOOK JACKET
