About this audiobook
Breakfast At Twilight by Philip K. Dick - It’s distinctly ungood to wake up in the middle of a war. Anybody knows that.
Philip K. Dick, an iconic figure in science fiction literature, captivated readers with his visionary and often mind-bending narratives. Dick explored themes of reality, identity, and perception throughout his prolific career. His works, including "Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?" (which inspired the film "Blade Runner"), "Ubik," and "The Man in the High Castle," challenged conventional notions of existence, blurring the lines between the real and the surreal.
Dick's writing was characterized by its philosophical depth, psychological insight, and prophetic vision of a future shaped by technology and societal upheaval. He delved into the nature of consciousness, questioning what it means to be human in a world increasingly dominated by machines. Dick's own tumultuous life, marked by personal struggles and existential crises, often found expression in his fiction, adding layers of complexity to his narratives.
Despite struggling with mental health issues, Dick's creative genius continued to shine, earning him a devoted following and posthumous recognition as one of the most imaginative and influential writers of the 20th century. His legacy endures, inspiring readers and writers alike to ponder the mysteries of existence and the boundaries of reality.
Philip K. Dick
Over a writing career that spanned three decades, PHILIP K. DICK (1928–1982) published 36 science fiction novels and 121 short stories in which he explored the essence of what makes man human and the dangers of centralized power. Toward the end of his life, his work turned to deeply personal, metaphysical questions concerning the nature of God. Eleven novels and short stories have been adapted to film, notably Blade Runner (based on Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?), Total Recall, Minority Report, and A Scanner Darkly, as well as television's The Man in the High Castle. The recipient of critical acclaim and numerous awards throughout his career, including the Hugo and John W. Campbell awards, Dick was inducted into the Science Fiction Hall of Fame in 2005, and between 2007 and 2009, the Library of America published a selection of his novels in three volumes. His work has been translated into more than twenty-five languages.
