About This Item
(San Francisco): (Re/Search Publications), 1984. First edition. Devoted almost entirely to British writer/philosopher J. G. Ballard. Quarto. 171, [5, ads and Ballard's "What I Believe"] pp. Well illustrated from photographs. Publisher's pictorial wrappers. An excellent copy.While chiefly known as a science fiction writer, we learn herein that he was also a visionary philosopher of some note. We find such articles as "Time, Memory and Inner Space," "Why I Want to Fuck Ronald Reagan," an article about William Burroughs entitled "Mythmaker of the 20th Century," and "Coming of the unconscious." His "What I Believe" list has such fun items as "I believe in the history of my feet" and "I believe in all hallucinations."
