Philip K. Dick

One of the many ironies about the life of Philip K. Dick, and in this case a heart-breaking one, is the recognition he has received posthumously. In my column about his life, I talk about some of his tragedies and triumphs, the balance usually tipping towards tragedy. I've also reviewed other books by Dick and movies based on his books.
