"Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep" by Philip K Dick (6 Nov 2013)

We will be meeting at The Retreat Hotel, Nicholson St, Abbotsford.

It's great to see the variety of novels that we're reading and this is our first excursion into sci-fi.

This was the basis for the movie Blade Runner (1982).

There's some information about Philip K Dick.  He died in 1982.  I wonder if he got to see the movie? Ah, at the end of the version I read, there was a little blurb about him which said that he died two weeks before the film was released, robbing him of seeing his work reach a broader audience.

Paul sent this link about Philip K Dick.
