Ubik: the Screenplay by Philip K. Dick
Ubik was one of the finest novels Philip K. Dick wrote, his distrust of reality put at the service of one of the most complex but fully realised plot structures he would ever devise. Yet if anything the screenplay, its alterations subtle but significant, is even better. So the reappearance of the screenplay, after more than 20 years, is welcome indeed. Though we must ask why the new publishers have chosen to retain the Foreword by Tim Powers, but omit the long and informative introduction by Paul Williams and the superb illustrations, replacing them with a brief and pointless Afterword by Tad Williams.
