Selected Stories Of Philip K. Dick

Selected Stories of Philip K. Dick contains twenty-one of Dick's most dazzling and resonant science fiction short stories, which span his entire career and show a world-class writer working at the peak of his powers. In "The Days of Perky Pat, " people spend their time playing with dolls who manage to live an idyllic life no longer available to the Earth's real inhabitants. "Adjustment Team" looks at the fate of a man who by mistake has stepped out of his own time.
In "Autofac, " one community must battle benign machines to take back control of their lives. And in "I Hope I Shall Arrive Soon, " we follow the story of one man whose very reality may be nothing more than a mind-bending nightmare. The collection also includes such classic stories as "The Minority Report, " the basis for the Steven Spielberg movie, and "We Can Remember It for You Wholesale, " the basis for the film Total Recall.
With an introduction by Jonathan Lethem, Selected Stories of Philip K. Dick is a magnificent distillation of one of American literature's most searching imaginations and a cornerstone of philosophical sci-fi.
