The Kindness of Women
(The second book in the Empire of the Sun series)(1991)
A novel by
J G Ballard
| "The book is full of mesmerising writing, classic examples of the Ballard style, paragraphs and pages that disturb and enthral... A force is operating in this astonishing book which is hard to resist." William Boyd |
In this sequel to "Empire of the Sun", the author places the traumatic events described in that novel within the context of a lifetime. Jim, the narrator, returns to England after the war, and trains as a medical student at Cambridge, and as an RAF pilot in Canada.
