Autor: J. G. Ballard

Apoio
J.G. Ballard begann als Science-Fiction-Autor in den späten 1950er-Jahren, ging aber schon sehr bald andere Wege, da die Zukunft für ihn nicht im »outer space«, sondern im »inner space« lag. In den 1970ern veröffentlichte er »Crash« (verfilmt von David Cronenberg), »High-Rise« und »Betoninsel«, später »Empire of the Sun« (verfilmt von Stephen Spielberg) und weitere Romane über die Auswirkungen technologischer und architektonischer Entwicklungen auf die Gesellschaft, mit denen er seiner Zeit immer weit voraus war.
