    Philip K. Dick was one of the most imaginative and original science fiction writers of his era, and since his death in 1982, his novels have continued to be discovered by each new generation of sci fi fans. His stories have been adapted for the screen many times including Total Recall, Minority Report, A Scanner Darkly, The Man in the High Castle and, most famously, Blade Runner.

    PKD – as he became known – was a periodic drug user with a colourful and sometimes chaotic personal life, a life which increasingly resembled those of some of the characters he himself created. Recurring themes in his work include the nature of reality, of time, of perception and of identity, alternate realities, artificial intelligence, dystopian futures, authoritarian governments, drug use, and altered states of consciousness.
