reviewed Women Pulitzer Playwrights: Biographical Profiles and Analyses of the Plays on February 16, 2018 Women Pulitzer Playwrights: Biographical Profiles and Analyses of the Plays
Academic treatment of PKD's legacy of work, including pieces from his 'Exegesis'.
My brother took it out for me while I was visiting him in Tucson, close to 2 years ago. I stayed up all night to read it before I had to leave, and I'm glad my determination won out. The content, though, is a little dry for my tastes, and it's been so long that while I know it had a profound effect on me I cannot remember much about it.
That's what happens when you wait to write reviews, folks.
