Synopsis of The Day of Creation
En la árida y devastada por la guerra Port-la-Nouvelle, en África central, el Dr. Mallory observa el fracaso de su clínica y sueña con descubrir un tercer Nilo que haga florecer el Sahara. Durante su búsqueda de agua, un bulldozer desentierra un antiguo tocón de árbol y brota agua, extendiéndose hasta convertirse en un enorme río. Con la tierra antes árida ahora repleta de aves y bestias, el obsesionado Mallory se aventura río arriba en un viejo transbordador de automóviles, enfrentándose a facciones hostiles mientras intenta encontrar la fuente de su propia creación. Esta edición es la Flamingo Modern Classic.

About the author
J. G. Ballard
James Graham Ballard was an English novelist and short-story writer, satirist and essayist known for psychologically provocative works of fiction that explore the relations between human psychology, technology, sex and mass media. Ballard first became associated with New Wave science fiction for post-apocalyptic novels such as The Drowned World (1962). He later courted controversy with the short-story collection The Atrocity Exhibition (1970), which includes the 1968 story "Why I Want to Fuck Ronald Reagan", and later the novel Crash (1973), a story about car-crash fetishists.
