craque sprung 🏳️‍🌈<p>Ballard&#39;s Drowned World is 1962.</p><p>So far it gives me strong Bradbury, Pynchon, and Delaney feels.</p><p>Ray and JG were contemporary and I think it shows. In a good way!</p><p>It reminds me a lot of Dhalgren (1975), which I may rereread next because I kept losing interest carting around an enormous paperback that has since disappeared. No gay sex yet tho.</p><p>I won&#39;t reread Gravity&#39;s Rainbow (1973) again (I think), there&#39;s others I want to cover. Still have that kilo of a tome.</p><p>This is all probably somehow the fault of Paul Bowles.</p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/bookstodon" class="u-url mention">@<span>bookstodon</span></a></span> <a href="https://c.im/tags/JGBallard" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>JGBallard</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/DrownedWorld" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>DrownedWorld</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Pynchon" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Pynchon</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/GravitysRainbow" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>GravitysRainbow</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Bradbury" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Bradbury</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/PaulBowles" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>PaulBowles</span></a></p>
