To do so, Fred takes on the identity of a drug dealer named Bob Arctor. And since Substance D--which Arctor takes in massive doses--gradually splits the user's brain into two distinct, combative entities, Fred doesn't realize he is narcing on himself.
Caustically funny, eerily accurate in its depiction of junkies, scam artists, and the walking brain-dead, Philip K. Dick's industrial-grade stress test of identity is as unnerving as it is enthralling.
Spring flowers, he thought as he reached the elevator. Little ones; they probably grow close to the ground and a lot of people step on them. Do they grow wild? Or in special commercial vats on in huge enclosed farms? I wonder what the country is like. The fields and like that, the strange smells. And, he wondered, where do you find that?

And, he thought, I would like to take someone with me when I go there, maybe Donna. (查看原文)
"Right on," he said mechanically. And then it flashed on him what Donna had said -- asking him to take her out. "Alll riiiight!" he said, pleased; life flowed back into him. Once again, the little dark-haired chick whom he loved so much had restored him to caring. (查看原文)

看的时候只会觉得，呵呵，又一本科幻小说。可是上课听老师讲课时候发现this is more than a fiction。 看电影觉得画面拍的非常好，意味深长，结局很好满出乎意料的。最后的字幕上来的时候就觉得这电影和小说都挺感人的。。。好杂的故事 = =
