I’ll start, so as a teen I stumbled across a book called," Someone comes to town, someone leaves town." The synopsis caught me as it’s about a man with a mountain as a fathera washing machine as a mother and one brother that is dead and trying to harm him. I’ll admit some of the technical terms were too much for my developing mind but it has stuck with me all these years.

What is the wackiest / craziest book you’ve read and did you enjoy the ride?

    Yes, there is such an economy of language, yet he says so much and gives me so much to consider. Ubik really blew my mind (just one wtf moment right after another). Then I followed it with A Scanner Darkly. It really hit me hard in several ways. I had to take a short reading break. The YouTuber Media Death Cult has a lot of great videos on PKD and his work (he also has a project going of reading all his novels).
