J G Ballard

I remember when I was a bit younger having a fascination for books written by J G Ballard.

The recent accident in Wales, where the car wasn't found for 48 hours reminded me of one of J G Ballard's books called Concrete Island.

Not everyone's cup of tea, but anyone else read any of his stuff?

I read alot of his stuff about thirty years ago. Some of it was brilliant. Some of it freaked me out.

Yeah. Some of it is pretty fked up in a Quentin Taratino way. It makes you wonder what is going on in someone's mind to think of something that is so warped.

Mind you, he was in a Japanese camp as a young child during WW2, so that probably didn't do him much good.
