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

4.0

This was hugely enjoyable and wonderfully twisted, a sort of epic-scale industrial Lord of the Flies. The microcosm of the middle to upper class allows for some great ruminations on class structure in the UK without ever letting that discussion get in the way of the thriller-style story. Great social science fiction. I can't wait to see the film next week!
