Thank you!
Unfortunately Carré's biography is not only out of print but seems to
have vanished completely from the book market. This goes for the English
and the French edition alike.
Our public library, however, has the PKD biography of Lawrence Sutin in
german translation.
Will check this out in the near future.
Another interesting sounding title - especially for Plisters - is
"Philip K. Dick. Entropie und Hoffnung",
München 1993, by Uwe Anton. This, too, is out of print, but online
there's an interview Anton and a colleague conducted with Dick in 1977:

Amusingly enough, PKD does not file amphetamines under 'hard drugs'.
