“It is sometimes an appropriate response to reality to go insane”
- Philip K. Dick, VALIS

Born in 1929 just before the Great Crash, Dick's twin sister died when she was a month old and his parents were divorced by the time he was three.

In his teens, he began to show the first signs of mental instability, but by then he was already producing fiction writing of a visionary nature.
