How to Build a Universe that Doesn't Fall Apart Two Days Later
By Philip K Dick In 1978, still struggling to make sense of a religious experience from 1974 and start an overdue novel, Dick produced this essay, which includes reflections on writing science fiction, Christianity and his two great obsessions: what is reality, and what does it mean to be human? Written as a speech that he probably never gave, and first published in a posthumous collection in 1985, it offers a fascinating glimpse into the mind of one of the most influential American writers of the late 20th century.
His warning that "we are bombarded with pseudorealities manufactured by very sophisticated people using very sophisticated mechanisms" feels urgent today. Published as a miniature pocketbook, it's provocative, funny, scary and thought-provoking essential reading.
