The Collected Stories of Philip K. Dick

Více o knize

Many thousands of readers consider Philip K. Dick the greatest science fiction mind on any planet. Since his untimely death in 1982, interest in his works has continued to grow, bolstered by increasing critical attention. The Philip K. Dick Award is presented annually for distinguished science fiction, and the Philip K. Dick Society is dedicated to studying and promoting his works. This collection features the writer's earliest short and medium-length fiction from 1953-1955, including previously unpublished stories. It has been described as "a useful acquisition for any serious SF library or collection" by Kirkus Reviews and "awe inspiring" by The Washington Post. The Wall Street Journal notes that Dick uniquely immerses readers in the minds of his characters. Volume 2/5 includes titles such as "The Cookie Lady," "We Can Remember It for You Wholesale," "The Cosmic Poachers," "The Trouble with Bubbles," and "Adjustment Team." Other editions of this volume are titled "We Can Remember It for You Wholesale and Other Classic Stories" and "Second Variety," with Citadel editions featuring "We Can Remember..." instead of "Second Variety" in Volume 2.
