Super-Cannes by J. G. Ballard Book Summary

Long-regarded as one of the true visionary writers of the twentieth century, J.G. Ballard was one of the first British writers of the post-war period to begin to see, and to map out in his fiction, the future course of our civilization. For forty years his unflinching eye has turned to the point where the advancing edge of our technological progress has worn away our inner humanity.

Eden-Olympia is more than just a multinational business park, it is a virtual city-state in itself, with the latest in services and facilities for the most elite high-tech industries. Isolated and secure, overlooking the luxurious French Riviera, the residents lack nothing. Yet one day Dr. Greenwood from Eden-Olympia's clinic goes on a suicidal shooting spree. Dr. Jane Sinclair is hired as his replacement, and she and her husband, Paul, are given Dr. Greenwood's house as a residence.

Unable to work while recovering from an accident, Paul spends his days taking a
close look at the house where Dr. Greenwood shot himself and three hostages. He discovers clues in the house lead him to question Eden-Olympia's official account of the killings. Drawn into investigating the activities of the park's leading citizens, while Jane is lured deeper into Eden-Olympia's inner workings, Paul uncovers the dangerous psychological vents that maintain Eden-Olympia's smoothly running surface. An experiment is underway at Eden-Olympia, an experiment in power and brutality. Soon Paul finds himself in race to save himself and his wife before they are crushed by forces that may be beyond anyone's control.

Not enough catalog items for this writer.. Bad.

Ms.. The copy is ridiculously poor quality. Typos & missing punctuation too numerous to count. I'm actually quite angry about paying $10 for this.

Great book, awful editing. I would have enjoyed this book a whole lot more if someone had bothered to proofread it. Not just off punctuation, but frequently misspelled words--sometimes the same word misspelled the same way three times in the same paragraph. Not hard words either--instead of "list" you get "Hst", instead of "lips" you get "Ups". It seemed to average 1 or 2 errors per page (in a 280 page book!) but would frequently have pages with 4 or 5 standout errors. Seriously, a college freshman should be able to do better, heck, spellcheck in MS Word would have caught 80% of the errors. Do yourself a favor and go to a library and check out the paper version of the book.
