Nothing rocks a guy harder than good dick.

Pick related. Over-looked page turner.

I'm a dickhead.
When he was not in constant poverty, he could write better novels.

Also, I've never read his "proper" fiction. Like, non-genre novels. Have you? Are they any good?

I read one of his very early ones... "Humpty Dumpty in Oakland" about used car salesmen. Terrible. Really bad. But his later stuff, like The Transmigration of Timothy archer, considered part of his VALIS trilogy but basically devoid of any scifi, that, to me, along with VALIS is Dick at his very best.

I agree, his late stuff is really good.
I haven't read his non-genre novels, and his exegesis yet.

What do you guys think of his wacky religious experiences, like in the R.Crumb cartoon about him
