He did science fiction. Among other things he was on of the British world destroyer authors.<p>But he also had a lot of rather experimental and even weird stories--some of which intersected SF to some degree and some of which really didn't.
I read this when it came out as a long time Ballard fan. It fleshed out a little more about his life I didn’t know, but becomes a weird read for the final third where the focus is on the co-author dying and the author switches to his wife, an originally unintended co-author. They certainly had a story of their own to tell, but it felt rather odd.
Seek out his various interviews on YouTube.
