Rezensionen

"The story of this collection of essays begins in 2012, a productive year for Philip K. Dick scholarship. ... I would recommend to any scholar or student who wishes to tackle the issue of madness in Dick, and I hope it may inspire further research in that direction. ... is a must-read for PKD scholars, and might be even more productive if approached as a series of articulate suggestions of future lines of research within and through Dick's oeuvre." (Umberto Rossi, Science Fiction Studies, Vol. 43, 2016)
