J.G. Ballard

J.G. Ballard has passed away. I had a pile of his books from Penguin, with stark, surreal covers. The Crystal World, The Wind from Nowhere...like "Chip" Delany, Gene Wolfe, Robert Silverberg, I'll always associate my reading from the late 1960's and early 1970's with those books.

A brief sample here.
