In "Holy Quarrel", Philip K. Dick takes on big data....again. A really good story and more relevant than ever.

"Arthur Mervyn" is another strange tale by Charles Brockden Brown, although this one is a bit more down to earth. It tells the story of a young man who falls into a criminal network when he tries to go from the farm to the city. How will he end up?

In this episode I take on the 1966 short story by Philip K. Dick "We Can Remember It For You Wholesale". It has spies, aliens, and world-saving empathy.

The final episode containing my thoughts on Philip K. Dick's "Now Wait for Last Year". This novel has one of the best endings in a Philip K. Dick novel. Marriage still sucks, but maybe we need to stick with it because it is one of the areas where we can find institutionalized solidarity.

The finale of this short series on "Wieland" by Charles B. Brown. Madness or the supernatural or the machinations or a trickster?

A new series on Charles Brockden Brown. We will start with "Wieland", one of independent America's first novels, a strange story of ancestry and insanity.

This novel, "Now Wait for Last Year" by Philip K. Dick, starts to get weird in part 3 of my review.

Part two of my thoughts on Philip K. Dick's "Now Wait for Last Year." So much fun.

It all comes to this. In part 6 of my comments on "Moby-Dick" we follow Ahab's chase of the White Whale.

Part 5 of my thoughts on Herman Melville's "Moby-Dick".
