JG BALLARD: WHY I WANT TO RONALD REAGAN Piner

The new Why I Want To Fuck Ronald Reagan , probably one of my favorite texts of JG Ballard, experimental period, experienced its first translation into French in the journal counterorders . A confidential issue, I guess. Number, a special "British speculative fiction," date of spring 1972 and above and 4 years of the publication of The Atrocity Exhibition by Champ Libre.
(INTERLUDE INFORMATIONAL: to read the news, without a magnifying glass or glasses, just click on the jpeg at the top of the ticket - it will appear in large size. UNDERSTOOD?)
course, the translation is not signed this great specialist Raymond Roussel and the Nouveau Roman (among other things) what Francis River but one Robert Pepin, subscribe to my anonymous search service.
And it is here (outside of large type effects) lies the interest of this little curiosity. For an alternative translation of a text by Ballard, it's always fascinating. The devil is in the details. Come out yours Skydiving, Lattes or your, or your Tristam. It's not Why I want to fuck Ronald Reagan , or Why I Want Enculer Ronald Reagan but to Why I Want Piner Ronald Reagan!
The difference is size and the term chosen, banging, I find very becoming. Moreover, it no longer said too much, banging, and it's stupid. In my opinion, its use, as distinguished as slang, is to recover from any emergency.
As for the text "thread red "this new, here is the translation given by François Rivière , I feel more striking: Over
these fantasies of murder
Tallis was taken by a growing obsession
genitals of the opposition candidate
which were returned by a thousand television screens.
studies filmed by Ronald Reagan
have created the scenario of an orgasm conceptual ontology
unique violence and chaos.
questioned 5 years later Stan Barrett in the pages of the magazine Universe (the # 08 March '77) and about the presence of 'apolitical' political figures in some of his texts, Ballard replied

" There is no explicit political opinions. I'm interested in characters like Reagan, Kennedy, etc.. is the that they are above all an expression of our own fantasies, the realization of our mythic lives.
It is not their personality that makes them appealing to us is we who create . And we are writing their roles. "
