Hell is out of fashion --institutional hells at any rate. The populated infernos of the 20th century are more private affairs, the gaps between the bars are the sutures of one's own skull. . .

Source: Visions of Hell, in New Worlds (London, March 1966; repr. in Re/Search, no. 8/9, San Francisco, 1984), review of Wyndham Lewis, The Human Age.
-- J G Ballard, (Nov 15 1930-2009), English novelist; He writes books of surrealistic fiction with apocalyptic themes; wrote the best-selling novel Empire of the Sun, 1984.
