Philip K Dick - A Scanner Darkly

Easily the best novel I've ever read. Semi-scifi/crime novel.

Bob Arctor lives with a load of drug addict hippies who use a drug called D. Simultaneously, Bob is Agent Fred, an undercover narcotics agent working for the government. The addicts don't know that Bob is an undercover agent, and the police don't know that Fred is Bob. In order to pass as an addict, Bob has to become a user - As a result, he slowly succumbs to schizophrenia as Bob and Fred develop into two completely different personalities.

Plus, there's a film of it in July. The fact that it's rotoscoped makes up for Keanu Reeves' presence.

Also:

Phillip K Dick - Confessions of a Crap Artist

The best non-science fiction book he's ever written.

Jack Isidore is a "crap artist" - He creates completely outlandish and stupid ideas such as the Earth being hollow, and that sunlight has weight. He moves in with his sister's family. Her husband is a bitter, dominant misogynist and she's completely manipulative and great at creating misery. Jack joins an apocalypse cult, despite being relatively happy with his life.

I know, I suck at synopses.
