"Empire of the Sun" was one of the best books I've ever read. The films of his work was great too though a Spielberg film.  JG Ballard was one of the best. Thanks for posting Nierika- like Huxley he saw the future before its time.  

Crash actually woke me up to the modern mess we are in.
After the Revolution of 1905, the Czar had prudently prepared for further outbreaks by transferring some $400 million in cash to the New York banks, Chase, National City, Guaranty Trust, J.P.Morgan Co., and Hanover Trust. In 1914, these same banks bought the controlling number of shares in the newly organized Federal Reserve Bank of New York, paying for the stock with the Czar\'s sequestered funds. In November 1917,  Red Guards drove a truck to the Imperial Bank and removed the Romanoff gold and jewels. The gold was later shipped directly to Kuhn, Loeb Co. in New York.-- Curse of Canaan
