dc.description.abstractEngaged primarily with the detrimental effects of modernism and late capitalism, which have a destructive impact on humanity, Ballard registers these impacts in all his works from various perspectives. Bearing this approach in mind, Ballard’s writing shifts its focus from external realities to internal experiences, aiming to explore how technology shapes one’s perception, memory, and desires. Grounded in the formative experience of turmoil and confinement, this preoccupation of Ballard forms the basis for all his works, establishing his reputation in post-war English literature. Celebrated for his challenging style and satirical tone in his depiction of bleak, dystopian, and post-apocalyptic scenarios, James Graham Ballard (1930–2009) holds a significant role in the world of English fiction through his novels, short stories, and essays. Born in Shanghai and interned in a Japanese civilian camp during World War II, Ballard’s earlier experiences of imprisonment and societal collapse contributed significantly to his literary imagination, as later fictionalised in his Empire of the Sun (1984).
