It's not very well known. I've got a bunch of of books of his short stories and never heard of that one till someone else on Lemmy mentioned it a few days ago.

It's easy to forget the amount of work scifi writers of that time pumped out. They were paid practically nothing and most of them (def PKD) wouod just take a shit ton of meth and write for days.

They were producing work nonstop for decades.
