Crash

Book • 1973
In 'Crash', J.G.

Ballard narrates through the eyes of James Ballard, a young man who becomes increasingly obsessed with car crashes after experiencing a fatal accident.

He meets Robert Vaughan, a former TV scientist turned crash enthusiast, who takes this fixation to extreme and disturbing levels.

The novel delves into a world where car crashes create a unique blend of violence and eroticism, challenging traditional narratives of desire and exploring the dark symbiosis between sex and auto accidents.

The story is marked by its graphic and provocative themes, which challenge societal norms and force readers to confront the inherent discomfort of a world dominated by technology and mortality.
