Picador Crash

In the 1970's, J G Ballard focused on controversial themes of sex, excess, and nightmarish scenes that disturbs the reader four decades or more later. From "High Rise", (1975); to "The Atrocity Exhibition", (1972). "Crash', is about Ballard, who is turned on by car crashes, as he meets various people: Vaughn, (a man who fuses technology is sex), while the characters over-indulge in behaviour that makes it an uncomfortable read. It is world's away from "The Drowned World", (1962), Ballard's science-fiction novel, to the well-known autobiographical "Empire of the Sun", (1984), (filmed by Steven Spielberg in 1987)."Crash", which was filmed in Canada by David Cronenberg in 1996, translates the novel to be a romantic thrill-ride that is hit-and miss with James Spader, Holly Hunter, and Rosanna Arquette. In short, "Crash" is a dazzling, futuristic, and voyeuristic book, that couldn't be written today, (in 2019). But it is an important book to read, as is all of Ballard's work before and after "Crash" ends at just over two hundred pages or so.

One of my favourite novels in a gorgeous edition

Outrageux, obscène, pervers: voilà ce qu'on dit de ce roman dès sa parution. C'est tout vrai. La découverte d'un univers sexuel parmi les tôles froissées des voitures, le désir excité par les cicatrices et les douleurs des accidents de la route: les protagonistes de cette terrible métaphore postmoderne explorent les coins obscurs de leur sensualité. Le message qu'on tire est une des révélations prophétiques de Ballard: l' artificialité de nos existances nous prive tellement du contact physique avec la réalité, qu'on désire la collision pour ressentir quelque chose.
