A Handful of Darkness (1955)
The first short story collection, A Handful of Darkness, was published in England by Rich and Cowan in 1955. The stories were chosen by Philip K. Dick himself as he explained in an interview with R. A. Lupoff "Well, I made the selection, by and large. Every story that they looked at was one that I had submitted to them, rather than one they found on their own. They continually kept rejecting stories and I kept sending more. So it took three or four separate batches of stories before they agreed on the contents.".
