PKD is probably the one dead person Id like to meet more than any other.

My favorite books are Man in the High Castle, Dr. Bloodmoney, Maze of Death, and Martian Time Slip.

Im reading his biography by Lawrence Sutin, definitley recommended.

"People have told me that everything about me, every facet of my life, psyche, experiences, dreams and fears, are laid out explicitly in my writing, that from the corpus of my work I can be absolutely and precisely inferred. This is true." Philip K. Dick (1980)

I read a PKD book years ago and i can't remember what the fuck it was called. I seem to remember the premiss of the story was a huge building in the middle of nowhere that symbalized some thing different depending on who was looking at it or in it. Can any one tell me what it was ? I know the description is a bit vague and i might even be remembering it completely differently to how it is, but i figured it's worth a try. Bit of a hard question to answer i surpose.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.
You'll get a gold star in ye jotter :J: :J: :J: :J: :J: :J: :J: :J: :J: :J: :J: :J:

Surprisingly enough I know exactly what your talking about. :)

'Maze of Death' one of my favs. The ending of that book rivals any twist in any plot ever, me thinks you should reread it.
