Like all PKD books, I enjoyed what I read but failed to grasp the deep meanings behind the stories. There were some that seemed more obvious than others, especially with the help of reading the forward to each story after finishing it, but still the message was out of my grasp. 

I've never really read short story collections before so I'm not sure if the super fast pace was on par for how they usually go or if that was just PKD's style. Either way I wasn't too crazy with how fast things seemed to happen, and I usually like fast paced stories. It just felt so different from his longer works where you have time to see how things slowly unravel; but I guess that's the point of a short story.

Overall I did enjoy it and I will still read his stuff. Like all of the books by him I have read so far I feel like I definitely need to revisit them (probably many times) to catch what I missed and piece together what he was trying to say.
