Tentatively, Convenience's Reviews > Vermilion Sands

I remember this as Ballard's most surreal collection. Every story in it is also in another collection. That's probably an indication that Ballard &/or his publishers think that it's some of his finest stuff. I agree. However, this is one of many instances where I wish GoodReads had at least a 10 star rating system because I don't really equate anything of Ballard's w/, say, James Joyce's "Finnegans Wake" but giving it a 3 or a 4 doesn't seem like enuf.
