Reseña del editor
On the arid, war-plaguedterrain of central Africa, a manic doctor is consumed with visions oftransforming the Sahara into a land of abundance. But Dr. Mallory’s obsessionquickly spirals dangerously out of control. First published in 1987, thisclassic Ballard thriller continues to resonate “with dark implications for thefuture of humanity” (Publishers Weekly).
