What I'm Reading Now: VALIS
Most every Philip K Dick book I've read has had some combination of:- Insanity/hallucination
- Wacky invented religions
- Technology
So far, VALIS takes the prize in making the insanity+religion the entire plot of the book, instead of a mere influence. In fact, a large percent of the book is occupied by a full text of the main character's "exegesis", which sounds like the insane ramblings of a nutcase's belief in humanities intelligent design by aliens.
This is probably my least-favorite PKD book yet.
