Told as a first person account from the protagonist James Ballard’s point of view who after an atrocious car accident he becomes sexually aroused and attracted to automotive crashes and discovers like-minded individuals such as the mysterious Vaughan who together explore their compulsion and their fantasies.
Violent, haunting and still relevant today as it analyses themes such as the demise of human relations in a world of technological dependence.
This novel should be considered an underground classic and an important transgressive novel.
