Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"It may be hard for some to accept that the same writer who recently snuck into the American canon as a visionary and paranoid pop surrealist also penned a half dozen or more proletarian-realist novels set in the California of the '50's and early '60's, the best of which occupy a region demarcated by Richard Yates on one side and Charles Willeford on another. But accept it." --Jonathan Lethem, author of The Fortress of Solitude

"He reworks the territory of soured domesticity (à la Richard Yates and John Updike) in a working-class milieu anticipating Raymond Carver. Decades later, his oeuvre (like Philip Roth's) is lovingly enshrined in our national pantheon." --LA Times on Voices from the Street

"Philip K. Dick was science fiction's prolific mind-blower." --Entertainment Weekly

"Remarkable. . .echoes of Dick's contemporaries such as Ralph Ellison, Richard Yates, Rod Serling, Raymond Chandler and early Kurt Vonnegut Jr. resonate, and a bonus exists in Dick's impeccable eye for detail." --Publishers Weekly on Voices from the Street

"Well written, it is a welcome addition to its author's large and brilliant canon." --Booklist on Voices from the Street

Reseña del editor:

In 1950s Oakland, California, Stuart Hadley, a young radio electronics salesman, risks his perfect life--a nice house, pretty wife, and decent job--as his growing anger, anxiety, and fear, and his resulting quest to fill the void with drinking, sex, and religious fanaticism threatens everything around him. By the author of Blade Runner. Reprint. 50,000 first printing.
