Empire Of The Sun
J. G. BallardJ.G. Ballard’s heartrending account of a young British boy’s four-year ordeal in a Japanese prison camp during the Second World War.
"A profound and moving work of the imagination." - Los Angeles Times Book Review
Based on J. G. Ballard’s own childhood, this is the extraordinary account of a boy’s life in Japanese-occupied wartime Shanghai. The result is a mesmerising, hypnotically compelling novel of war, of starvation and survival, of internment camps and death marches. This is a book that blends searing honesty with an almost hallucinatory vision of a world thrown utterly out of joint.
"An outstanding novel...a classic adventure story." - The New York Times
J.G. Ballard was at the forefront of modern British fiction writing for over three decades and became a bestselling writer of international stature. He wrote his first novel, The Drowned World, in 1961. His extraordinary childhood forms the basis of the semi-autobiographical Empire of the Sun (1984), which was based on his early experiences in a wartime Japanese prison camp. It won the Guardian Fiction Prize and was shortlisted for the Booker Prize. Ballard followed it with an equally compelling sequel, The Kindness of Women.
