Radio Free Albemuth by Philip K. Dick || Mariner Books Classics Paperback Edition  
A philosophical science fiction novel from Hugo Award-winning author Philip K. Dick, Radio Free Albemuth is a visionary alternate history of a dystopian United States, full of the conspiracy theories and religious themes that became the foundation for his celebrated VALIS trilogy.

Philip K. Dick, known for over a hundred SF novels, many turned into movies - most celebrated being Blade Runner, had a genuine mystical experience in his later life, that he relates in Valis, and in Radio Free Albemuth.

In an alternate reality, the USA is a fascist state, ruled by a dictatorial president. A music executive experiences nocturnal visions where information is fired into his brain, information that saves his son's life. A mysterious woman contacts him, who also is receiving information from that strange source. It has been there for thousands of years, contacting people who can change human consciousness.

The book was made into a movie, starring Alanis Morissette.
