G. Ballard's own childhood, this is the extraordinary account of a boy's life in Japanese-occupied Shanghai. Trapped in a prison camp and separated from his parents, Jim is witness to the death, starvation and chaos of the Second World War. His story is a mesmerising vision of a world thrown utterly out of joint.Winner of the James Tait Black Memorial Prize and shortlisted for the Booker, Empire of the Sun is an astounding, hypnotically compelling novel by which the twentieth century will be not only remembered, but judged.'Remarkable ... form, content and style fuse with complete success ... one of the great war novels of the 20th century' William Boyd
