I read this novel a few years ago and still can’t get it out of my mind. There is something so powerful about it. PKD was pretty far gone at the time(couldn’t discern if he was human or written into existence by himself) he wrote it, but A Scanner Darkly is almost semi-autobiographical dealing with a character that is dealing with similar issues. Not many other things have hit me harder than this did and the quote “Everything in life is just for a while” rings true more than any quote I’ve ever read. There is also a brilliant film adaptation done by Richard Linklater that is very true to the book.
