What do we know about the novels of Dick?
There are a number of important novelists from America in this century, but Phillip K. Dick is certainly one of the most interesting. Dick was born in 1899, and received his education at NYU. His novels were about the post-war American society. His descriptive style is very much caught up in the rhythms of black music.
In 1922, Dick published his first book. He also married, in the same year, a woman named Jane Bobb. She was also a writer. The appearance of his most famous novel was in 1925. It was called The High Tower.
Although it was true that Dick had a natural talent for writing, he was also a compulsive drinker. Though a brilliant success in his youth, he never made the necessary adjustments for a maturing writer in an ever changing world. His later writings, Bladerunner, Killing Time, and The End Game, were less successful, so much that when he died in 1942 most of his books were no longer being printed and most people had forgotten about him.
His reputation in modern times is far greater than it was even during the time he was alive. This has been especially true since the film version of his famous novel The High Tower was released.
