Written by the author in the winter and spring of 1960,in Point Reyes Station, California.It was written on commission for,but not published by Harcourt,Brace and Company in New York.Like the ten other mainstream (non-science fiction) in the previous five years it went unpublished at the time it was written.In the sequence of Dick's work,this work was written immediately after 'Confessions of a Crap Artist' - see my book ID rja897620 for UK,p/back 1st,and the next book that Dick wrote was 'The Man in the High Castle' the Hugo-Award winning science fiction novel that ushered in the next stage of Dick's career.
He is too excitable and too pushy.His wife drinks too much.He may be a man of principle,but Leo Runcible of Runcible Realty is an outsider in Carquinez,Marin County.When he gets into an argument with his neighbour Walt Dombrosio,the resulting ramifications follow a bizarre logic of cause and effect to lead in entirely unexpected directions . . .
