nothing feels good for like the fifth time.

I'm now reading A Messiah at the End of Time or The Transformation of Mavis Ming by Michael set in the Dancers at the End of Time version of Earth. So far it is much like the books in that trilogy, and I wouldn't expect otherwise, whimsical satire in a far future where literally anything is possible (which makes the residents rather bored.)

When I finish it, I'll be starting the Moorcock graphic novel Elric: The Making of a Sorcerer next. I'm quite looking forward to spending some time with my favorite albino friend then!

i've just read 'Ubik' by Philip K. Dick - and its awesome, mindblowing, scary book.

i also like very much the adaptation of A Scanner Darkly with Keanu Reeves, Winona Ryder, Robert Downey Jr, Woody Harelsson. Anybody saw that movie?

screamingskull · 04.26.2008, 09:59 AM

and

which i am struggling to get through

ALIEN ANAL · 04.26.2008, 10:00 AM

i loved that movie
my fav scene is when they are all paranoid about someone being in the house
it was perfect
it captured being paranoid on drugs poooifectly

I'm on my third reading of Naked Lunch, with On The Road being read on the side.

Yes, it is one of a handful of actualy great science fiction movies, and the best PKD adaptation ever in my opinion. You should read Now Wait for Last Year, that's my favorite PDK drug story.

I'm reading up on Mahayana Buddhism, having managed to forget a lot of it in the last few years. It's tricky, making good of all these text books floating around my person...

i've read "The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch" and it's good as Ubik.

Also I've read "VALIS" which is the break of PKD i think.. it was hard to read this book.

i will buy Now Wait for Last Year in time

Blade Runner is great movie, but not an 'adaption' it's only the idea from Do androids dream of electric sheeps. Minoroity Report based on short story of PKD is not that bad as an action movie. Greets man.
