Few authors are so iconic that their name is an adjective – Ballard is one of them. Master of both literary and science fiction, his classic novels such as Empire of the Sun, Crash and Cocaine Nights show a world out of joint, a bewildering and strange place. Alongside the classic dystopias of The Drowned World and High Rise, his legacy shaped the future of literature.
