Hi Mark & Dave,

One of my faves is 'The Man in the High Castle' 1963.

Like most of themes there is confusion about true and false realities and how nothing seems grounded, solid or reliable. It's alternate history is fascinating, and about daily life under totalitarian Fascist imperialism, and this occurs in 1962, 15 years after the end the 2nd World War in this book it's from 1939--1947.

"The victorious Axis Powers---Imperial Japan, Fascist Italy, and Nazi Germany---are conducting intrigues against each other in North America, specifically in the former U.S." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Man_in_the_High_Castle

Wishing you well.

Brilliant. I realised a couple of years ago that I hadn't actually read as many Dick books as I thought, so have been working on correcting this fault of late |(currently A Scanner Darkly). I'll add these to the list!

Cheers

    33 Sci-Fi Stories by Philip K. Dick as Free Audio Books & Free eBooks

    in e-books, Literature, Sci Fi.

    Although he died when he was only 53 years old, Philip K. Dick
    (1928 -- 1982) published 44 novels and 121 short stories during
    his lifetime and solidified his position as the most literary of
    science fiction writers. His novel Ubik appears on TIME
    magazine's list of the 100 best English-language novels, and Dick
    is the only science fiction writer to get honored in the
    prestigious Library of America series, a kind of pantheon of
    American literature.

    If you're not intimately familiar with his novels, then you
    assuredly know major films based on Dick's work -- Blade Runner,
    Total Recall, A Scanner Darkly and Minority Report. Today, we
    bring you another way to get acquainted with his writing. We're
    presenting a selection of Dick's stories available for free on
    the web. Below we have culled together 33 short stories from our
    two collections, 600 Free eBooks for iPad, Kindle & Other Devices
    and 550 Free Audio Books: Download Great Books for Free. The
    stories, it appears, are all in the public domain.
