in typical dick fashion you don't really know what's going on for the first two thirds of the book. part of the pleasure of reading dick is that whole "figuring out" process, and VALIS definitely has that. but once the plot opened up, I started to get into the story more, and I'm curious as to where it goes.

also not sure how much background you did but a lot of these things actually happened to dick, I think writing the novel was him trying to come to terms with these experiences. so it has an interesting autobiographical flair to it.

I've read that he thought he actually experienced that pink light in real life, that he abused drugs, that he tried to kill himself by cutting his own wrists, overdosing on pills etc.

It's all very interesting. My favorite concept from the book is that Nixon and his administration are supposedly the continuation of Roman Empire and Horselover Fat is one of the persecuted Christians and he has shares his head with one of them. I'm wondering how that'll turn out.

Would you say he kind of predicted his own death in the book? Cause I've got that vibe when he wrote about Horselover Fat's pressure going so up that he almost had a stroke.
