In EMPIRE OF THE SUN J G Ballard has produced a mesmerizing, hypnotically compelling novel of war, of starvation and survival, of internment camps and death marches, which blends searing honesty with an almost hallucinatory vision of a world thrown utterly out of joint. It is a novel which shatters the myths of the Second World War in Asia- and which immediately takes its place as a classic work of modern literature. Rooted as it is in the author’s own disturbing experience of war in our time, it is one of that small and select group of novels by which the Twentieth Century will be not only remembered but judged.
