Cocaine Nights by JG Ballard

Book: Cocaine Nights by JG Ballard

This book generated completely different responses from the members of the club - with no general concensus. The distopian view of the coming 'leisure' society that we will enjoy. The mind numbing boredon, security paranoia and general insularity that will only be enlivened by crime, sex and drugs.
The words given to describe the book were: flacid, discriptive, shite, tennis whites not cocaine nights, disappointing, cynical, badly written, compelling and distopian.
Marks awarded between 2 and 7.
