Publisher's Synopsis
"Dick skillfully explores the psychological ramifications of this nightmare."-The New York Times Review of Books
Flow My Tears, the Policeman Said grapples with many of the themes Philip K. Dick is best known for- identity, altered reality, drug use, and dystopia-in a rollicking chase story that earned the novel the John W. Campbell Award and nominations for the Hugo and Nebula.
Jason Taverner-world-famous talk show host and man-about-town-wakes up one day to find that no one knows who he is-including the vast databases of the totalitarian government. And in a society where lack of identification is a crime, Taverner has no choice but to go on the run with a host of shady characters, including crooked cops and dealers of alien drugs. But do they know more than they are letting on? And just how can a person's identity be erased overnight?
