Checked out the site above. No idea what it's about.
Philip K. Dick was great because his writing was so far ahead of his time. He 'grasped' our tenuous hold on reality, and in his works foresaw existential issues brought on by advancing technology. The movie "Bladerunner" came from "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" Another book was "The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch."
One of my favorite novels is his mind bending "Ubik".


If you go looking for Dick, be sure not to miss his short stories.
