rmOkay, all you avid readers, I need help.
I need actual books that reference books or plays that don't actually exist in our world (but we perhaps wish they did) a la "The Swordsman Whose Name was not Death" from The Privilege of the Sword.
Yes, I'm up to something, although I'm not sure of the shape or viability of it yet.

While "The Man in the High Castle" is the best known Dick "book that doesn't exist", there's also The Book of Kalends in "Galactic Pot Healer", and the book with the wub skin cover in "Not By Its Cover".
