Dick","description":"For his many devoted readers, Philip K. Dick is not only one of the one of the most valiant psychological explorers of the 20th century (\u003ci\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/i\u003e) but a source of divine revelation. In the riveting style that won accolades for \u003ci\u003eThe Adversary\u003c\/i\u003e, Emmanuel Carrère's\u003ci\u003e I Am Alive and You Are Dead\u003c\/i\u003e, follows Dick's strange odyssey from his traumatic beginnings in 1928, when his twin sister died in infancy, to his lonely end in 1982, beset by mystical visions of swirling pink light, three-eyed invaders, and messages from the Roman Empire. Drawing on interviews as well as unpublished sources, he vividly conjures the spirit of this restless observer of American postwar malaise who subverted the materials of science fiction--parallel universes, intricate time loops, collective delusions--to create classic works of contemporary anxiety.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Emmanuel Carrere, Emmanuel Carr Re\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e St. Martins Press-3PL\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.50w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780312424510\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eEmmanuel \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003eCarrère\u003c\/b\u003e is one of France's most critically acclaimed writers, author of several screenplays and novels, including \u003ci\u003eClass Trip \u0026amp; The Mustache, \u003c\/i\u003e as well as \u003ci\u003eThe Adversary\u003c\/i\u003e, a \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e Notable Book of 2001.
