‘An exciting plot, unfolded with a master’s cunning...Ballard has written an adventure story that constantly surprises and excites.’ Guardian
‘A metaphysical adventure story dealing with complex themes – the life-giving power of water, the cold eye of television, obsession and love – all set in a dream Africa, as if hallucinated by Joseph Conrad.’ Angela Carter
‘A blend of animated reverie, myth and adventure story, “The Day of Creation” imprints itself on the mind by its acid sweetness.’ Times Literary Supplement
An unforgettable voyage of the imagination from the bestselling author of ‘Cocaine Nights’ and ‘Super-Cannes’ – one of his most acclaimed novels.
In parched Port-la-Nouvelle in central Africa, Dr Mallory watches his clinic fail and dreams of discovering a third Nile to make the Sahara bloom. During his search for water, an ancient tree stump is uprooted by a bulldozer and water wells up, spreading until it becomes an enormous river. With the once arid land now abounding in birds and beasts, the obsessed Mallory forges up-river in an old car ferry, clashing with hostile factions as he tries to find the source of his own creation.
