Title: A must for PKD fans
Review: This book is a must for Philip Dick fans, particularly if you're a fan of his later work. If you haven't already read Valis, this book won't make much sense to you. The first portion of Valis is almost autobiographical and describes some very strange events that happened to Dick in the early 70's. He then spent the rest of his life trying to understand what happened to him, and wrote voluminous notes on his theorizing. The collected notes he called his "Exegesis," which is a theological term meaning "interpretation of scripture" (I told you they were very strange events.) Some of his Exegesis made it's way into Valis and other books. This volume contains even more. Unfortunately, he never really comes to a "final answer," which makes him different from the Apostle Paul, but this is a fascinating volume nonetheless. Fans of Gnosticism will find this book even more interesting than I do.
