Understanding
Philip
K. Dick
Eric Carl Link
Author of more than forty novels and myriad
short stories over a three-decade literary career,
Philip K. Dick
(1928-1982)
single-handedly re¬
shaped twentieth-century science fiction. His
influence has only increased since his death with
the release of numerous feature films based on
his work, including Blade Runner (based on Do
Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?), Total Re¬
call (based on We Can Remember It for You
Wholesale ), Minority Report (based on The
Minority Report ), and Next (based on The
Golden Man ). In Understanding Philip K. Dick,
Eric Carl Link introduces readers to the life,
career, and work of this groundbreaking, prolific,
and immeasurably influential force in American
literature, media culture, and contemporary sci¬
ence fiction.
Dick was at times a postmodernist, a main¬
stream writer, and a pulp fiction writer and often
all three simultaneously, but as Link illustrates,
he was more than anything else a novelist of
ideas. From this vantage point, Link surveys
Dick s own tragicomic biography, his craft and
career, and the recurrent ideas and themes that
give shape and significance to his fiction. Link
addresses Dick s efforts to break into the main¬
stream in the
1950s,
his return to science fiction
in the
1960s,
and his move toward more theo¬
logically oriented work in his final two decades.
Link finds across Dick s writing career an intel¬
lectual curiosity that transformed his science
fiction novels from bizarre pulp extravaganzas
into philosophically challenging explorations of
the very nature of reality, and it is this depth of
vision that continues to garner new audiences
and fresh approaches to Dick s genre-defining
tales.
KRIC CARL I INK is a professor of American
literature at the University of Memphis, the
author of The Vast and Terrible Drama: Ameri¬
can Literary Naturalism in the Late Nineteenth
Century, and the coauthor of Neutral Ground:
New Traditionalism and the American Romance
Controversy.
