J. G. Ballard

A startling and at times unsettlingly prescient collection of J.G. Ballard’s greatest interviews.

Extreme Metaphors

After a morning's writing J.G. Ballard often found himself with company. Latterly, it was in his Shepperton home - an environment as fantastical as any of those in his fiction, increasingly summoned into London suburbia, from which, literally, Ballard observed the advancing world - that he entertained his many admirers with insights into that world and its future. Across many interviews Ballard gained a somewhat oracular reputation. Now for the first time, Extreme Metaphors collects those interviews given throughout Ballard's career.It is a testament to those visionary and predictive instincts. A book for lovers of Ballard but also for lovers of this world.
