Jason Taverner is a Six, the result of top secret government experiments forty years before which produced a handful of unnaturally bright and beautiful people - and he's the prime-time idol of millions until, inexplicably, all record of him is wiped from the data banks of Earth. Suddenly he is a man with no identity, in a police state where everyone is closely monitored. Can he ever be rich and famous again? Or are those memories just an illusion?

Among his many fine novels are THE MAN IN THE HIGH CASTLE, TIME OUT OF JOINT, DO ANDROIDS DREAM OF ELECTRIC SHEEP? and FLOW MY TEARS, THE POLICEMAN SAID.

Reviews for Flow My Tears the Policeman Said

One of the most original practitioners writing any kind of fiction, Dick made most of the European avant-garde seem like navel-gazers in a cul-de-sac Sunday Times Dick quietly produced serious fiction in a popular form and there can be no greater praise Michael Moorcock One of the genuine visionaries that North American fiction has produced LA Weekly For everyone lost in the endlessly multiplicating realities of the modern world, remember: Philip K. Dick got there first Terry Gilliam The most consistently brilliant SF writer in the world John Brunner
