About
Gather Yourselves Together is one of Philip K. Dick's earliest novels, written when he was just 24 years old.
It tells the story of three American workers left behind in China by their employer, biding their time as the
Communists advance. As they while away the days, both the young and naïve Carl Fitter and the older and
worldly Verne Tildon vie for the affections of Barbara Mahler, a woman who may not be as tough-as-nails as
she acts. But Carl's innocence and Verne's boorishness could end up driving Barbara away from both.
