>He wrote 45 novels[2] and about 121 short stories, most of which appeared in science fiction magazines.[3] Even if I were to start now I still wouldn't finish it all before death :(
Say on novel is 200 pages, then he wrote 9000 pages in novels. If you ready 50 pages a day then you can finish all his novels in 180 days.
>>25204291Goodbye to my social life :D
>>25204287>Dick>Land>HitlerMeth is the Patrician's drug
Most of his novels can be read in a few hours and most of his novels are not worth reading. t. has read all of his novels and short stories
>>25205140>and most of his novels are not worth readingOooh.. Philip catching heat here lol
The patrician choice for robot vagina snakes.
>>25205160He would agree. He regressed as a writer during his drug phase and did not start progressing until he sobered up. From a strictly writing standpoint, A Scanner Darkly is the novel that should have followed High Castle. He had a few decent novels between the two but they were still mostly regressions.
>>25205178Yes, drugs are bad news and along with alcohol the downfall of many great writers.
>>25205321Without the drugs and the subsequent sobriety we never would have gotten A Scanner Darkly. Sure he would have progressed more as a writer but we don't know that would have been enough on its own. Drugs and alcohol and addiction are a fact of life and "drugs bad" completely misses the point of A Scanner Darkly, PKD and reduced both to a limp PSA. Moralizing does more harm than good.
>>25205344Very true. It depends on the writer I guess.
>>25205161What about his work do you like?
>>25205894He really tried to dissect human sexuality. He failed but at least he failed in an entertaining way. Kind of like how Heinlein failed but in a spectacular way, I suppose.
Today I will read Second Variety.
