  • Summary

  • Crash by J.G. Ballard is a provocative novel that explores the dark intersections of technology, sexuality, and violence, following protagonist James Ballard as he becomes involved with a group of people who derive sexual excitement from car crashes. This underground world, where the characters reenact and fetishize automobile accidents, serves as a chilling critique of modern society's fascination with technology, celebrity, and the mechanization of human desire. Blurring the line between pleasure and pain, Ballard’s work challenges social taboos and questions the psychological impact of living in an increasingly synthetic, technology-driven world.
