Originalni opis knjige
The second in a two volume collection of acclaimed short stories by the author of Empire of the Sun, Crash, Cocaine Nights and Super-Cannes. With eighteen novels over four decades – from The Drowned World in 1962 to his final novel Kingdom Come in 2006 – J.G. Ballard is known as one of Britain's most celebrated and original novelists. However, during his long career he was also a prolific writer of short stories; in fact, many people consider that he is at his best in the short-story format. These highly influential stories have appeared in magazines such as New Worlds, Amazing Stories and Interzone, and in several separate collections, including ‚The Terminal Beach‘, ‚The Venus Hunters‘, ‚Vermilion Sands‘, ‚Low-Flying Aircraft‘ and ‚Myths of the Near Future‘. Set out in the original order of publication and frequently the point of conception for ideas he further developed in his novels, these stories provide an unprecedented opportunity to see the imagination of one of Britain's greatest writers at work.
