London, Jonathan Cape, 1975
£950

A fine inscribed first edition of this keystone dystopian work by J.G. Ballard, anticipating the breakdown of modern society, set amongst the then increasingly proliferate high-rise residential buildings that serve as a hothouse for class resentment, primeval instincts and capitalist excess gone mad. Successfully adapted for film by Ben Wheatley in 2015, starring Tom Hiddleston, Sienna Miller & Jeremy Irons.
