I've read a fair amount of Ballard's work and I think really like his prose. It was particularly interesting to read his autobiographical 'The kindness of women' which does a lot to explain the themes that recurr in his work. If you haven't read any of his work, I recommend starting with some of his short stories, such as "The drowned giant". Probably give 'The atrocity exhibition' and 'Crash' a miss, at least until you have read some of his other work.
