About This Item
Tight, square spine. Clean, unmarked interior. Some light to moderate edge-wear and very light soiling to the back cover. 'A new kind of man evolves,' writes Anthony Burgess in his intro to this collection of the speculative master's shorts, 'enslaved by engines of subliminal persuasion to ever-increasing consumption. Our response to Ballard's visions is twofold: we reject this impossible world; we recognize that it is all too possible.' Lovely octavo-format book, with dynamic design by Amy Hill featuring multi-dimensional, outlined headings and a wonderful primary-colored cover illustration by surrealist Carlos Ochagavia, who was also the creator of Robert Anton Wilson and Robert Shea's Illuminutus! Trilogy covers for Dell. 302 pp. Fiction.
