SYNOPSIS High-Rise by J.G. Ballard. The book is aspeculative novel published in 1975 that explores societal collapse within a luxurious, modern apartment building. The novel's summary is as follows: Setting : The story takes place in a newly built, forty-story high-rise building outside London, designed as a self-contained community with all amenities. Plot : The residents, initially members of the upper-middle class, gradually abandon social restraints and their lives outside the building as minor technical issues and class conflicts escalate. Conflict : A class war erupts, turning elevators into battlegrounds and cocktail parties into marauding attacks as residents revert to primal, violent instincts. Themes : The narrative serves as a chilling commentary on societal fragmentation, urban decay, and the psychological effects of architecture and isolation. The residents, rather than leaving the building, embrace the chaos and self-destruction. N° de réf. du vendeur 238
