Overview

Literary criticism. Cultural studies. Highly acclaimed as a science fiction writer, J.G. Ballard far transcends that label. Ballard has dilineated an updated mythology and philosophy coherent for our times, ranging from his investigation of the psychosexual significance of the car crash (in CRASH) to the barbarism latent in a new vertical condominium (in HIGH-RISE). In this strikingly illustrated volume, encompassing interviews and a wealth of rare selections from every aspect of Ballard's career, introduce yourself to the advanced thinking of a major contemporary writer. Highly recommended as both an introduction an a tribute to this remarkable writer. -- The Washington Post.
