The book and its contents are in clean, bright condition. The text pages are clean and bright. The dust jacket is crisp and clean. "James Graham Ballard (15 November 1930 19 April 2009…) was an English novelist, short story writer, satirist, and essayist who first became associated with the New Wave of science fiction for his post-apocalyptic novels such as The Drowned World (1962). In the late 1960s, he produced a variety of experimental short stories (or "condensed novels") , such as those collected in the controversial The Atrocity Exhibition (1970). In the mid 1970s, Ballard published several novels, among them the highly controversial Crash (1973) , a story about symphorophilia and car crash fetishism, and High-Rise (1975) , a depiction of a luxury apartment building's descent into violent chaos.

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Good. 1st Edition. A well‑preserved first UK hardback edition of 'The Day of Creation', one of J. G. Ballard's most enthralling and surreal novels, published in 1987 by Victor Gollancz Ltd. In this visionary work, Ballard follows Dr. John Mallory, a World Health Organi…zation doctor in war‑torn Central Africa, whose desperate dream to bring water back to a drought‑ravaged land propels him into an obsessive journey up the newly formed river he has inadvertently created. Blending psychological depth with ecological myth and existential unrest, 'The Day of Creation' is a standout in Ballard's late‑20th‑century canon - a gripping narrative that continues to captivate fans of literary speculative fiction and critics alike. Condition Notes: Book is in Very Good condition: clean, bright pages with light toning, and a firm, square binding. Appears lightly read. Dust jacket in Good condition: shows rubbing, edge wear, and a small area of loss/tear to the lower rear corner, along with general handling wear.

The main character of the novel is the World Health Organization doctor John Mallory who, six months after his arrival in Central Africa, finds that intense guerrilla activity has left him without patients. He devotes himself, instead, to the task of bringing water to the region, with dreams of setting the Sahara in flower. When he accidentally manages to achieve his task by creating a river, he becomes prey of an increasingly delirious spiral of fantasies, starting to identify himself with the new river that he has dubbed "Mallory". Obsessed, he decides to go up the river in order to "kill" its source, together with a teenaged African girl, whom he considers a sort of spirit of the waters, and other characters including a half-blind British documentary filmmaker and two ruthless local chieftains trying to take advantage of the new prosperity brought by the water.' (Wiki) ***'This is classic Ballard. Mesmerising. No one else writes with such haunting aspect.' - William Boyd (Review quote taken from the back panel) ***First impression of the true first edition, in very nice collectable condition. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc.
