A review by adrienneleighton
High-Rise by J.G. Ballard

5.0

Fantastic read. I found the societal critique very interesting. It is a gritty novel, not for the fainthearted but you get that from the opening. The way Ballard creates his characters as well is gripping, even though there are so many people in the novel you don't lose track of who is who because of their striking personalities and attitudes.
