Book Review/ Podcast: Lies Inc. (Unteleported Man) by Philip K Dick

Lies Inc. (Unteleported Man) by Philip K Dick

Paperback, 202 pages

Published March 2004 by Vintage (first published July 1983)

The tortured path this book took to publication should qualify it for a bit of a hall pass. We will get into the path to publication, rejection, re-write, death, ghost re-writes and found re-writes in the Fullerton collection. That said this is really two books that are forced together, each part has interesting points, although the original novella makes more pulpy sense there is fun weird stuff in the bad trip additions. Full podcast coming but with all the Virus stuff not sure when we will record keep your eyes peeled.
