  • Overview

    The short stories "Crash," "Tolerances of the Human Face," and "Mae West's Reduction Mammoplasty" by J. G. Ballard

    Introduction to the French edition of Crash
    An excerpt of an interview with Will Self and J. G. Ballard from 1994


    When J. G. Ballard, our narrator, smashes his car into another and watches a man die in front of him, he finds himself drawn with increasing intensity to the mangled impacts of car crashes. Robert Vaughan, a former TV scientist turned nightmare angel of the expressway, has gathered around him a collection of alienated crash victims and experiments with a series of autoerotic atrocities, each more sinister than the last. But Vaughan craves the ultimate crash―a head-on collision of blood, semen, engine coolant, and iconic celebrity.

    First published in 1973, Crash remains one of the most shocking novels of the twentieth century and was made into an equally controversial film by David Cronenberg.
