Dick (1928-82) is now seen as a uniquely visionary figure, a writer who, in editor Jonathan Lethem&#8217;s words, &#8220;wielded a sardonic yet heartbroken acuity about the plight of being alive in the twentieth century, one that makes him a lonely hero to the readers who cherish him.&#8221; Posing the questions &#8220;What is human?&#8221; and &#8220;What is real?&#8221; in a multitude of fascinating ways, Dick produced works-fantastic and weird yet developed with precise logic, marked by wild humor and soaring flights of religious speculation-that are startlingly prescient imaginative responses to 21st-century quandaries.
<p>This Library of America volume brings together four of Dick&#8217;s most original novels. <i>The Man in the High Castle</i> (1962), which won the Hugo Award, describes an alternate world in which Japan and Germany have won World War II and America is divided into separate occupation zones. The dizzying <i>The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch</i> (1965) posits a future in which competing hallucinogens proffer different brands of virtual reality. <i>Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?</i> (1968), about a bounty hunter in search of escaped androids in a postapocalyptic future, was the basis for the movie <i>Blade Runner</i>. <i>Ubik</i> (1969), with its future world of psychic espionage agents and cryogenically frozen patients inhabiting an illusory &#8220;half-life,&#8221; pursues Dick&#8217;s theme of simulated realities and false perceptions to ever more disturbing conclusions. As with most of Dick&#8217;s novels, no plot summary can suggest the mesmerizing and constantly surprising texture of these astonishing books.</p>
