Have you read any of his books? They're often dystopian stories about the ultimate effects of consumerism. I guess they verge on sci-fi but they are presented as something else - a crime novel or something.

I've only read Empire of the Sun as part of A-level English Literature, that put me off, are any of the rest any good?!?
Okay - that's autobiographical I think?
The one I remember reading is Cocaine Nights, but I'm sure I've read others.
Interesting discussion on wikipedia:
I disagree with Budrys - too literal rather than understanding the stories as metaphors.
I wasn't aware it was autobiographical?
Maybe I'll give him a go! Haven't read a novel in ages!
