Adjustment Team
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Adjustment Team is a science fiction short story/novella by Philip K. Dick. It was first published in Orbit in 1954, and later published in The Book of Philip K Dick in 1992, and in Selected Stories of Philip K. Dick in 2002.
Ed Fletcher, a real estates salesman, finds out that our world is really, in effect, one big soundstage controlled by strange and mysterious guardians. The plot is very similar to the 1998 science fiction film Dark City and other works suggesting the idea of a manufactured reality.
