Rezensionen

'An extraordinary writer ... Calm and curious, pointing out every new convergence, Ballard reminds us that dreams are often perverse' Zadie Smith

'Ballard is beleaguered by his obsessions ... remorselessly visual' Martin Amis

'One of the few genuine surrealists this country has produced, the possessor of a terrifying and exhilarating imagination' Guardian

'A work of very powerful originality. Ballard is amongst our finest writers of fiction' Anthony Burgess

'Ballard has issued a series of bulletins on the modern world of almost unerring prescience. Other writers describe; Ballard anticipates' Will Self
