The Best Short Stories of J. G. Ballard by J.G. Ballard

4.0

there’s this really cool story towards the end of the book that features a group of errant youths who sculpt clouds using makeshift gliders in the world turned desert post WWIII. then, halfway through this beautiful woman shows up and we are lead by the narrator to believe she’s quite evil because she killed her (cheating) husband after he painted a really poor portrait of her. at one point she appears topless and her breasts are described as snakes.

that pretty accurately sums up my entire opinion on JG ballard. if you google pictures of the man, you can tell he had absolutely no game.
