Ballard, Crash or The Atrocity Exhibition.

This is without a doubt the most surreal book I've ever read, anything more like it?

Don't say Kafka or Murakami. They're good, but they're not nearly surreal enough.

>too much of a brainlet to understand

it's just schizophrenic ramblings wtf am i supposed to enjoy this or get something out of it or wat??

y'know, books like "Gravity's Rainbow" or "The Atrocity Exhibition", preferably not that hard to understand and not super experimental, thx

Should I read The Atrocity Exhibition?

LMAO WTF AM I READING

Pic related is pretty damned strange.

>tfw a book is so weird you literally can't tell if it was good

>Pornography is under attack at present thanks in part to the criminal excesses of kiddy porn and snuff movies, and to our newly puritan climate – the fin de siècle decadence that dominated the 1890s, and which we can expect to enliven the 1990s, may well take the form of an aggressive and over-the-top puritanism.

Any suggestions for works similar to this? And, how does this one compare to J.G . Ballard's other novels?

>wtf am I reading?

I always remember sneaking into my father's study and taking a sneak peak at this as child
