<p>'The fact that what Dick is writing about is reality and madness, time and death, sin and salvation – this has escaped most critics. Nobody notices that we have our own homegrown Borges.' Ursula K. Le Guin</p>
<p>'No other writer of his generation had such a powerful intellectual presence. He has stamped himself not only on our memories but in our imaginations' Brian W. Aldiss</p>
