I've only read VALIS out of those but it was a pretty awesome account of psychosis or something.
I'm reading In Cold Blood now. I might try some proust next. good idea y/n

VALIS is probably a pretty weird choice for my first PKD but it looks like a great book so w/e
Proust is always a good idea. I've only read the first volume of In Search of Lost Time and it's very beautiful and flowy and sort of very slowly and deliberately burrows into your brain.

I think you should try some of his earlier work, because once you are familiar with PKDs style of writing you will appreicate Valis a lot more.
Ubik is a good one

I just got the latest Alan Partridge book, but I also downloaded the audio book, so I might just play it while looking at the words.
Could be the best of both worlds.

«The Crow Road» by Iain Banks. One eighth read, and I'm not sure what it is about. Will see what's further in it.
