- TylerE 3y agoAudible has an anthology the collects basically all the short stories - it’s like 60 hrs long.
- john-tells-all 3y agothanks! title is "Complete Short Stories", and yes it's 63 hours long! I love Ballard, so this is a fine investment.
- TylerE 3y agoI need to break it back out myself. I made it through the first ten hours or so. It’s not that I didn’t like it… it’s just so dense and disturbing. Not exactly binging material.

- lmm 3y agoRead this link against my better judgement and found it very dull (I find this usually happens with things recommended as "anyone should read x", without any detail). What do you like about it?
- LispSporks22 3y agoI’ve read many of his short stories, but not that one. Loved it. Thanks for mentioning it
