Solar Lottery

By Philip K. Dick

Why hasn't this been made into a movie? It's not very Philip K. Dick, but it's very movie.

Radio Free Albemuth

Mad dreams and paranoid delusions. Good to meet Philip K. Dick as a character.

Eye in the Sky

by Philip K. Dick

Knowing Philip K. Dick as I do, I wonder why I thought it would STAY a novel about a world where religion was repeatable, instead of turning into a story about hideous insect-monsters and inside-out cat monstrosities?

We Can Build You

by Philip K. Dick.

It's a good book, but it has a thoroughly misleading title and description. It could more accurately be called "We Can Build a Manic-Depressive Lincoln like you." It's about mental illness, start to finish.

Galactic Pot Healer

by Philip K. Dick

This must be one of the books he wrote to pay for food while extremely high.  Which does not mean that it is not, in its own way, awesome.

The Divine Invasion

by Philip K. Dick

Qualitatively different from his other books, I think - like, Shakespeare started writing romances late in his career? This is one of PKD's, uh, Godmances?
