A Sage of the Future Whose Time Has Finally Come

I didn’t appreciate Philip K. Dick’s writing when he was alive, but I certainly appreciate where he was coming from. I especially liked this passage from a commentary in the Times this morning: “The science fiction writer’s job is to survey the future and report back to the rest of us. Dick took this role seriously. He spent his life writing in ardent defense of the human and warning against the perils that would flow from an uncritical embrace of technology.”
