What does /lit/ think about Philip K. Dick?

i like him great ideas and very creative

The craziest ideas man in SF.

It's a shame his prose is merely workmanlike. At least it's readable without being obnoxious, like YA fiction.

Didn't he think he was possessed by an alien? The man was insane.

Great ideas. Bad writing/prose.

I still enjoy his books

Might have been all the menthol snuff he enjoyed.

I love his books but I have to admit his prose is not the best.

PKD has impressive and articulate prose in quite a few of his novels, i.e. A Scanner Darkly, Dr. Bloodmoney, The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch, Flow My Tears, the Policeman Said... In fact the only books he wrote with shitty prose were his blatantly pulp/made-for-money stuff.
