The Aerodrome Bewertungen

A powerful and mysterious novel - totally gripping -- J.G. Ballard
A horrified and darkly comic response to the appeal of totalitarianism, a mixture of Orwellian satire, rural sentimentality and Kafkaesque nightmare... * Guardian *
Intensely original...humour and irony, and the smell of the English earth...Its value as literature becomes increasingly apparent at each re-reading -- Anthony Burgess
The Aerodrome has been called the best novel ever written about fascism...captures so well the sinister glamour...as unsettling today as when it appeared more than sixty years ago * New Statesman *
The only outstanding novelist of ideas whom the decade of ideas has produced is Rex Warner -- V.S. Pritchett
