Martin Amis on JG Ballard - a personal essay


I remembered JG Ballard from earlier SF works and (foolishly) hadn't linked the same man to the many marvellous works he created later. This warm-hearted essay by Martin Amis is an excellent example of the essay form - informative, personal, and critical. Read it all - it's well worth it.
