- Peter owen Publisher (1), I think this was another charity-shop buy. I had never understood why Ballard felt he had to fictionalise his autobiography in Empire of the Sun (1), and the Kindness of Women (1), and here he goes back to it and in the process explains why he didn't do so directly to begin with. A lot of Ballard's fiction deals with the same themes and even the same scenarios (1), but told serially they each time take on some new quality (1), produce new and stratling insights (1), and I think this book shows that's what he did with his own life. Everything here is de-dramaticised (1), recounted (1), but not flat (1), because Ballard used his life experience to reflect (1), and here (1), he reflects on that reflection. (1)
