‘A marvel ... there is something a little shaming in reading Ballard: you have to face the fact that there exist writers with such fresh imaginations they can’t write five pages without stumbling on an alternate world’ Zadie Smith
‘Each of Ballard’s 98 short stories is like a dream more perfectly realized than any of your own ... Simply a master story writer – the maker of unforgettable artefacts in words, each as absolute and perplexing as sculptures unviewable from a single perspective’ Jonathan Lethem
‘One of the most haunting, cogent and individual imaginations in contemporary literature’ William Boyd

Descripción Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The second in a two volume collection of short stories by the acclaimed author of 'Empire of the Sun', 'Crash' and 'Super-Cannes'. The new edition is introduced by Adam Thirwell. 'Will quite possibly be remembered as the most original English writer of the last century' Martin Amis For over four decades, J. G. Ballard was one of Britain's most celebrated and original novelists. However, during his long career he was also a prolific writer of short stories, a form in which many argue he laid his firmest claim to greatness. This, the second book in a two-volume collection, completes an unparalleled review of Ballard's career. Following the original order of publication, its stories - many of them embryos for later novels - survey the full imaginative range of one of the twentieth century's greatest writers. This edition is part of a new commemorative series of Ballard's works, featuring introductions from a number of his admirers (including Ali Smith, Iain Sinclair, Martin Amis and Ned Beauman) and brand-new cover designs from the artist Stanley Donwood. The second in a two volume collection of short stories by the acclaimed author of `Empire of the Sun', `Crash' and `Super-Cannes'. The new edition is introduced by Adam Thirwell.
