C O N D I T I O N : Very Good. N O T E S: Paperback. C O N T E N T S : JG Ballard covers familiar territory in Super-Cannes: new social structures under pressure, new psychopathologies to be explored. As he did in his previous novel Cocaine Nights, he has avoided the more abstract imagery and plot of Rushing to Paradise or The Day of Creation to create, on the surface, a more mainstream novel, clearly concerned with modern issues of racism, random violence and sexuality. But familiar territory is always the most deeply subversive place in a Ballard novel. Eden-Olympia is more than a mere business park. It is an expensive and intense hive, the modern "Dream Palace" of "a new elite of administrators, enarques and scientific entrepreneurs"; its aim, "to turn Provence into Europe's silicon valley". Paul Sinclair finds himself with time on his hands in this radical environment when his young wife takes a job at Eden-Olympia. She replaces a doctor who killed 10 executives with a rifle before shooting himself. He left no note and no explanation. Sinclair finds himself living in the same house and learning some of the same lessons as the killer. (Originally £7.99)336pp. ||| || |

20x11 cm. Traducción de Carlos Gardini. 1ª ed. en español.- Las preocupaciones obsesivas de Ballard -la relación entre el paisaje exterior y el onírico paisaje interior; las secuencias temporales atascadas o invertidas; las imágenes simbólicas... han orientado la ciencia ficción hacia la psique, dándole una dirección nueva que es de pronto parte del pensamiento contemporáneo... Las historias de Ballard nos alcanzan con el brillo solitario y perturbador de esos mensajes que flotan en botellas arrojadas al mar y que exigen una respuesta. (The Times Saturday Review). Contiene las siguientes narraciones: Las voces del tiempo - El barrendero de sonidos - El hombre sobrecargado - Zona de terror - Nicho 69 - Zona de espera - Ocaso
