A Scanner Darkly

Meer over het boek

A marvellous book, marvellous and terrible... the best book of the year - extraordinary - Brian Aldiss, Oxford Mail California, the mid-1990's - a society split between the "straights" (with their privileges) and the dopers (with their dreams), leaving the narks stranded in the no-man's land between... One of the most original practitioners now writing any kind of fiction, Philip K. Dick makes most of the European avant-garde seem navel-gazers in a cul-de-sac. A Scanner Darkly reveals for the first time the source of these bizarre and compelling imaginings... a serious, frightening, candid exercise in what might be called transcendental autobiograpy. - Alan Brien Sunday Times
