J.G. Ballard's Surrealist Imagination
Author: Jeannette Baxter
Publisher: Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.
ISBN: 9780754662679
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 260
Book Description
Making the case that J. G. Ballard's fiction must be read within the framework of Surrealism, Jeannette Baxter argues for a radical revisioning of Ballard that takes account of the political and ethical dimensions of his work. A very different portrait of Ballard emerges, one that has implications for our understanding of post-war history and culture, the role of the reader and the function of the written text within a predominantly visual culture.
