Insight into Philip K. Dick, the man,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Selected Letters of Philip K. Dick 1972-1973 (Hardcover)
The revelation in reading this book is realizing how juvenile and manipulative the man himself could be in contrast to the rather more noble alter egos he used in his novels. This image of Dick is jarring at first, but as I progressed through the letters, which chronicle the humiliations he was forced to suffer as a result of his poverty during this period, my sympathy returned to Dick and I was grateful to see this "real" side of the man who wrote so many worthwhile novels. More editorial details on people and events referenced in the letters would have been appreciated, but overall the book is well put together and certainly recommended for any Dick fan.
