Description:
Praise forHumpty Dumpty in Oakland: "A grim portrait of a luckless used-car salesman and his bigoted landlord in Oakland that seems at first to share little with the hallucinatory sci-fi works for which Philip K. Dick is best known. But both men slip into paranoid spirals that will be familiar to any fan of Dick's later masterpieces. Offers a fascinating glimpse into how Dick's uniquely warped perspective evolved." --Entertainment Weekly(Grade: A) "Fans of the late SF icon Dick who have yet to discover his obscure genre works will be pleasantly surprised by this profound-and perplexing-1986 posthumous tragicomedy. This paranoid and ambiguity-filled exploration into the psyche of the small businessman showcases not only Dick's wild imagination and sardonic wit but also, and most notably, his mastery at intertwining perception with reality." --Publishers Weekly
