When I grow up I want to write like Philip K. Dick --- without the real madness in my head of course.
His brand of eeriness is exactly the effect I want to create and can't. If I can do that I'd die a happy woman.
I don't think when he wrote the novel he was thinking about psychopathy, but his portrayal of empathy-less androids is precisely psychopaths.
Empathy, that's what makes one human. According to some researchers' claim, one in four among us is an android ... I mean psychopath.
The movie (Blade Runner) didn't get it.
