Haven't read it, but it's a PKD biography of a pretty good reputation.
Emmanuel Carrere is a well known French author, I've read couple of his
novels and they are exellent.

The biography is originally written in French; as always, a lot depends on
the quality of the translation.

(I'm a professional translator myself - the eight PKD novel I've translated
into Finnish was published just a month ago.)
