Another of Dick’s epic sci-fi, which I’m surprised isn’t more widely regarded as one of his best. A tale of morality, humanity and collusion, well beyond its time. Dick’s conception of the future is truly unmatched in the genre and reflects on morality in a way which supersedes other outdated views he may include. What an author!
