A book that makes you think about some of the big questions: "What does it mean to be me?", "Is there a god?", and "What drug was Philip K Dick taking when he wrote this chapter?". A book that was thought-provoking and confusing but a bit too drug-addled for me. I prefer his other books.
Moderate: Cancer, Forced institutionalization, Suicide attempt, Alcoholism, Death, Drug use, Suicide, Addiction, and Mental illness
