In the overcrowded world and cramped space colonies of the late 21st century, tedium can be endured through the use of the drug Can-D, which enables the users to inhabit a shared illusory world. When industrialist Palmer Eldritch returns from an intersteller trip, he brings with him a new alien drug Chew-Z, which is far more potent than Can-D, but threatens to plunge the world into a permanent state of drugged illusion controlled by the mysterious Eldritch.

Simon (friedegg) | 39 comments Another mind bending classic from PKD. I really need to re-read this at some point because I don't think I full understood it the first time.
