Only Apparently Real/the World of Philip K. Dick

Philip K. Dick said that his purpose as a writer was “to pierce through the veil of what is only apparently real and get to what is really real.” Meditation upon the nature of reality leads one down strange pathways. Nothing is as it seems. This is a book about a man who experienced this, expressed it brilliantly, and refused to stop at that, devoting himself instead in his works to the passionate and often comical search for what is, if it isn’t what it seems to be.
