Writers like W.S. Burroughs and P.K. Dick get plenty of mentions here but not so J.G. Ballard. Definitely my fave writer from that 60-70s sci-fi era and still writing today. High Rise and Concrete Island could've been written yesterday.

There's a definite English quality about his stuff from that period, and I wonder if that might be a reason why he has such a low profile on here.

Anyway, would be nice to know the thoughts of others who've read him.
