Autorenporträt
J.G. Ballard was born in Shanghai in 1930 and lived in England from 1946 until his death in London in 2009. He is the author of nineteen novels, including Empire of the Sun, The Drought, and Crash, with many of them made into major films.
Rezensionen
'Mordant and inventive, Ballard at his best' New Statesman

'It is futile to have expectations of Ballard: he will inevitably subvert them. All we know for certain is that the novels he will write could not be written, could not even be guessed at, by anyone else' Martin Amis, Observer

'Enter Mr Ballard's worlds and you become entranced in a séance difficult to break out of, so powerful is his method' The Times

'This is a very clever fiction, and - yes - another amazing improvisation on Ballard's basic theme' Guardian
