Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep

Written by: Philip K. Dick

Apparently the inspiration for Blade Runner, though kind of like “Moby Dick” was the inspiration for “Jaws”. I think it was dark with a lot of narration from inside people’s minds. Pretty much a short story with a little future space stuff.

Length: 3 hrs

6/2002: I totally don’t remember anything about this book but I’m sure it was cool. That’s only slightly less than than the three scenes I remember from the movie, which were the guy asking about a thirsty tortoise getting blown away by the android screaming “Let me tell you about my mother!”, when Darryl Hannah did a bunch of backflips and then got shot in the stomach, and the little origami pterodactyl at the end which I’ve been told was very meaningful of something I do not recall. So I think, in the end, the answer is yes, androids do dream of electric sheep. Mostly, the sheep are humping.
