Hi! Long time sci-fi fan (read old man). Do you think you could find the original dust cover art for J. G. Ballard's book, The Crystal World," and post it, please? I remember thinking it the most oddly beautiful piece when I first saw it, but it's been decades ago, and it still retains a space in my head. Thanks so much!
Yeah, here it is! It's from 1966, by German surrealist Max Ernst:

I actually indirectly referenced this cover in the opening pages of my book on 70s sci-fi art -- after Richard Powers started the trend of surrealist science fiction cover art in the 50s, a lot of other publishers jumped on it, and some went as far as to get fine artists like Ernst rather than illustrators. Good eye, it's really a standout cover!

When I think of you, I want to be alone together. I want to strive against and for. I want to live in contact. I want to be a context for you, and you for me.

if max didn't fall
Since he loved the “party” they threw for him, he shares his beer with everyone (grace of course does not participate) 
He finds out that shockingly enough, ruth and him are equally as obsessed with sex when they both scoff and say “watch some porn!!!!”
Pete and steph can’t help glancing at each other as they sip on beer (pete is getting very quickly drunk because he has never had beer even though ted offers him some of his jack at home)
As he gets tipsy he uses stephanie to help him get up, giggling nervously when he brushes her hair off her shoulder showing her neck 
Ritchie explains how attack on titan is actually super cool, it has tons of blood and guts and fighting, and that it’s not lame let me you show you a clip
Max smacks his shoulder and calls it “nerd shit” but *does* remember the name, where he will look it up and watch the whole first season in a weekend.
When they get back to school the next day, not much changes for the whole school. Kyle still can’t date brenda, nerds still (overall) are poorly treated.
But it gets better
They can go to the football games (if they don’t cheer for him enough, they may change though)
Theyre allowed to be in the same hallway
He’ll smack them on the shoulders and he does slap peter on the ass but not even close to the level as before
They win the big game (fuck clivesdale!!! Fuck em straight to hell!!)
Max gives ritchie a chest bump and after this he can join the huddle SOMETIMES
Steph and peter celebrate a bit more than they intended (watching it sarcastically right) and may or may not hug and get very flustered when the winning play is made.
Maybe they go study at pasquales for real next time and max shouts “I DID NOT CONSENT TO THIS RENDEZVOUS!!” every time he sees them together.

This was a really fun challenge! 😆 what was your favorite children’s book growing up?

I rebound This Is How You Lose the Time War because I wanted MORE COLORS.
(And also maybe the idea of using that tweet by Bigolas Dickolas as a blurb tickled me greatly. Because that whole situation was a highlight of my month.)
❤️ Did the cover with the same birds but added plot relevant double exposure effect I’ve loved since my True Detective days.
💜 Used purple fabric for the spine, painted the edges in a fun gradient, sewn the endbands;
💙 and used lovely fluid art by Marek Okon for endpapers.
Now no one in my household stands a chance of avoiding exposure to this gorgeous story ❤️💜💙

any play, performance, or game is a cage because it's played by the rules written by someone else or whatever black sails is about.

i think my biggest ever hater aftg take is that I do not give a SHIT about robin or any new members of the team. in fact I like to pretend they don't exist and that the team somehow just stays those nine until they all graduate. you could not PAY me to acknowledge Robin beyond this and I hope she (and the rest of them) do not appear in the new books.
