Thomas Disch was a regular voice in the British "New Wave" of the 1960's. 
His short stories of the period reflect the strengths and weaknesses of
that movement.  I've read one of his novels, "Camp Concentration", which
is a strong examination of experimentally (and leathally) raising the
intelligence of political prisoners.
