Dystopian journey through an abandoned United States.

Envision being on an expedition across a desolate America, rediscovered—a landscape transformed by climatic upheavals. J. G. Ballard's "Hello America" offers such an adventure wrapped in social commentary and vivid imagery. If the idea of exploring a world both familiar and alien excites you, where the ruins of a once-great civilization prompt reflection on our own, this book could seize your imagination.
