Philip K. Dick (1928–1982) wrote 121 short stories and 45 novels, translated into more than 25 languages. He is recognized as one of the most brilliant modern visionaries. Many of his works have been adapted into films and television series, such as Blade Runner, Total Recall, Minority Report, The Man in the High Castle, Philip K. Dick's Electric Dreams, and others.
On a future Earth poisoned by world wars, amid radioactive dust and neon signs urging travelers to the sweet life in colonies on other planets, bounty hunter Rick Deckard must find and destroy six fugitive androids—creatures almost indistinguishable from humans. But as his investigation progresses, Deckard begins to be plagued by doubts and questions that he has yet to find answers to…
'Emigrate or degenerate.
The choice is yours: either life or eternal peace.'
'Do androids dream?' Rick asked himself.
Probably so; that's why they occasionally kill their masters and flee here to Earth.'
'A wonderful and complex book.' — Brian Aldiss
