Sobre este artículo
Garden City: Doubleday & Company, Inc., 1969. First edition. A fine copy in a fine dust jacket with light toning to the spine panel and slight shelf wear with a couple mild stress creases at the base of the spine panel. (17006). Octavo, cloth. "A brilliantly realized science fiction future darkened by Kafkaesque paranoia. As portrayed by Dick, a world in which cryogenic suspension has abolished traditional concepts of death and in which psychics can alter the future by changing the past is one that offers no foundation for objective truth." - Barron (ed), Fantasy and Horror (1999) 6-113. Anatomy of Wonder (2004) II-336. Barron (ed), Horror Literature 4-97. Survey of Science Fiction Literature V, pp. 2350-56.
Sinopsis
Ubik is a 1969 science fiction novel by American writer Philip K. Dick. In 2005, Time magazine named it one of the 100 greatest English-language novels published since 1923; critic Lev Grossman described it as "a deeply unsettling existential horror story, a nightmare you'll never be sure you've woken up from".
