J. G. Ballard Crash
Venditore: Lafeltrinelli.it Prezzo: 12.49 € (+2.70 €)The definitive cult, post-modern novel – a shocking blend of violence, transgression and eroticism – reissued with an introduction from Zadie Smith.\n\n\n \n \n After being bombarded endlessly by road-safety propaganda it was almost a relief to find myself in an actual accident.\n \n \n\n\n When James Ballard smashes his car into another, he becomes fascinated with the allure of violence. His new friend Dr Robert Vaughan – a charismatic figure with a dubious sense of morality – leads him to a transgressive underworld of desire, where the collision of modernity and sex are pushed to the extremes. In a society ruled by mass-media and technological advancements, are there any limits to humanity’s obsessions?

J. G. Ballard Kingdom Come
Venditore: Ibs.it Prezzo: 10.68 € (+2.70 €)With a new introduction by Deborah Levy and a striking new cover design by the artist Stanley Donwood, Ballard's final novel sees consumerism evolve into something even more sinister.\n\n\n A gunman opens fire in a shopping mall. Not a terrorist, apparently, but a madman with a rifle. Or not, as he is mysteriously (and quickly) set free without charge.\n\n\n One of the victims is the father of Richard Pearson, unemployed advertising executive and life-long rebel. Now he is driving out to Brooklands, the apparently peaceful town on the M25 which has at its heart the very shiny shoppers' paradise where the shooting happened - the Metro-Centre.\n\n\n Then the main suspect is released - thanks to the testimony of self-styled pillars of the community like the doctor who treated Richard's father on his deathbed.

James G. Ballard Crash
Venditore: Lafeltrinelli.it Prezzo: 10.45 € (+2.70 €)Ad accomunare le vite del narratore, James Ballard, e dello scienziato televisivo e psicopatico Robert Vaughan è la passione morbosa per gli incidenti stradali con il loro strascico di morte, deformazione e mutilazione dei corpi, commistione di tecnologia e carne, lamiere e sesso. Entrambi sono reduci da scontri che hanno modificato la loro percezione di cose e persone. Attorno a loro si muovono le figure di Catherine, la moglie di James, con la sua attrazione omoerotica per Karen, la dottoressa Helen Remington, il cui marito è morto nello schianto con l'automobile di James, e altri individui a loro volta presi nelle spire del fascino perverso della tecnologia e del suo impatto sulla vita umana. Il tutto descritto con algido, clinico distacco. Si spiana così la strada, come ha detto lo scrittore, \"a tutti i nostri piaceri più concreti e delicati - quelli delle delizie del dolore e della mutilazione; del sesso come arena perfetta, come brodo di coltura di sterile pus, per tutte le veroniche delle nostre perversioni; della libertà morale di attendere alla nostra psicopatologia come a un gioco; dell'apparente illimitatezza delle nostre capacità di concettualizzazione. Ciò che i nostri figli hanno da temere realmente non sono le autostrade del domani, bensì il nostro sottile piacere nel calcolare i più eleganti parametri delle loro morti\".
