J. G. Ballard is best known now for "Empire of the Sun", an
autobiographical novel made into a movie by Steven Speilberg. But he was a
major force in the SF "new-wave" of the 1960's. He was famous for his
experimental prose style (writing a ccompressed novel in 10 pages). Not
for everybody, but I can recommend The Crystal World and The Best Short
Stories of J. G. Ballard.
