J. G. Ballard - Crash - Wikipedia
The book explores themes such as the transformation of human psychology by modern technology, and consumer culture's fascination with celebrities and technological commodities. The human characters in the novel are cold and passionless, unable to become s*xually excited unless some kind of technology is involved (typically architecture and cars). The gruesome damage inflicted on car-crash victims is not seen as shocking, but as the liberation of new sexual possibilities that have yet to be explored, such as in one scene where a man and a woman have s*x in a car that was involved in an accident, but rather than have v*ginal s*x, he penetrates a wound on her thigh that she received in the crash. Finally, the book asks why we, as an enlightened society, accept such a “perverse technology” – that k*lls a vast number of people yearly – as such an integral part of our culture.
Ballard writes in the foreword: “Do we see, in the car-crash, the portents of a nightmare marriage between technology, and our own s*xuality? … Is there some deviant logic unfolding here, more powerful than that provided by reason?”
