"his interest was restricted to two themes, sex, as represented in the novels of Harold Robbins and Irving Wallace,...and law literature.". Reinforces the idea that Dick is a sexual deviant, remember he wanted to rape Nancy, and it shows us that he is intelligent and a fighter, unwilling to simply give up and accept his sentence.
