The Age (Australia) has a profile of J.G. Ballard, whose new novel Kingdom Come has just been released.
Also in The Age: Sylvia Kristel, the Dutch model who became a 70s porn icon after she starred in Emmanuelle, has published a memoir. Of her notoriety, she is quoted as saying: "It was all very agreeable while it lasted."
