I first found Dick in my dad’s extensive collection of sci-fi paperbacks from the 1960’s & 1970’s.

I later rediscovered Dick because his wife (or was it his daughter? Theresa?) was a TA in my college poetry class! I believe she wrote as well, but not nearly as well, know what I mean?

Cool, I’m glad I logged on tonight, I have been wanting to check out PKD, especially after having just seen **Minority Report** and loved it! Thanks for all the great suggestions.

EJsGirl,

Teresa (a.k.a. Tessa) was Dick’s fifth wife. What college did you take this course at?
