His sister and her husband try to help him, but it becomes clear, to Jack anyway, that they are plagued by a least as many problems as he.

Publisher Notes
Confessions of a Crap Artist is one of Philip K. Dicks strangest and most accomplished novels. Jack Isidore is a crap artist--a collector of crackpot ideas (among other things, he belies that the earth is hollow and that sunlight has weight) and worthless objects, a man so grossly unequipped for real life that his sister and brother-in-law feel compelled to rescue him. But seen through Jacks murderously innocent gaze, Charlie and Judie Hume prove to be just as sealed off from reality, in thrall to obsessions that are slightly more acceptable than Jack's, but a great deal uglier.
