Read by Joyce Bean and Patrick Lawlor.
The collection contains eighteen stories and novellas written between 1954 and 1963, years in which Dick produced some of his most memorable work, including such novels as Martian Time Slip and the Hugo Award-winning The Man in the High Castle. Included here are "Autofac", a post-apocalyptic tale in which humans share the devastated Earth with the machines they have created but no longer fully control; "The mold of Yancy", a portrait of a world reduced to bland conformity by the vapid, and ubiquitous pronouncements of a virtual demagogue; and "The days of Perky Pat", another post-apocalypse story in which Earth's survivors find temporary solace in the Perky Pat game, a game rooted in the images and memories of a world that no longer exists.
