Description

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.

It is the late 1960s, and a paranoid incompetent has schemed his way into the White House and convulsed America into a vicious war against imaginary, internal enemies. Philip K. Dick, a struggling science fiction writer, is trying to keep from becoming one of that war's casualties in this surreal police state.

Meanwhile, Dick's best friend, record executive Nicholas Brady, is receiving transmissions from an extraterrestrial intelligence that may also happen to be God -- an entity that apparently wants him to overthrow the president.

Suspenseful and darkly hilarious, Radio Free Albemuth cements Dick as the twentieth century's greatest prankster-prophet.

"An intense, often very moving book... touching on all the major Philip K. Dick themes." -- Philadelphia Inquirer
