The Atrocity Exhibition

The Atrocity Exhibition Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

One of the most shocking books ever written. Nelson Doubleday ordered the entire first print run shredded alter he read the chapter satirizing his friend ("Why I Want to Fuck Ronald Reagan"). Decades ahead of its time, this apocalyptic masterpiece exposes the calamitous desires underlying our present-day Celebrity Culture, including such impulses as the urge to die in a car crash with the limousine of a famous movie star. Sex in the next century has never been so accurately imagined.

Synopsis:

The Atrocity Exhibition is J.G. Ballard's most complex, disturbing work, with fabulous photos by Ana Barrado and artwork by Phoebe Gloeckner.
