Personally, I think Dick should have just let 'The Unteleported Man' be, without throwing the extra 50 pages or so back into the mix for some reason.
The only other PKD book on the shelf which I haven't read was a book called 'The Man Whose Teeth Were Exactly Alike', which looks like some more boring reading to me.
I think I would rather have dental surgery:-) |
DickHeads Podcast Episode #29 - Lies Inc. - with D. Harlan Wilson |
The guy just seems to be a drugged-out looney to me, more than a genius or prophet.
I've never done psychedelics in my life, but was thinking I would at some point when the opportunity presented itself in a good setting, but now after reading Dick's works I'm not so sure that I should bother:-)
I do have 'The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch' ordered from my local library to read next, so that should put me off doing psychedelics, if nothing else of Dick's I've read before hasn't already.

I am listening to this You Tube below of 'UBIK' being read to me, since everyone tells me it's one of Dick's better stories, and I've heard it is slated to be made into a film or TV show, after Michel Gondry threw in the towel a few years back.
And after reading 'LIES Inc' and taking the book back to the library, this latest 'This Jungian Life' podcast episode dropped onto my playlist, so maybe there is a message there for me?-)
Do you really feel compelled to correct a print novel, mate? |
What a f#cking Dickhead!
And I found this page of the novel amusing featuring Boise, Idaho, as I once contemplated going to Treefort in Boise for a Sync-head get together, but I'm glad I didn't go.
It was the '42 Minute' guys who got me reading PKD in the first place, and one of them lives in Boise, Idaho.
There was a lot of rubbish getting beamed into PKD's head from somewhere, I reckon:-) |
