| - Vermilion Sands ist der Titel einer Sammlung von Kurzgeschichten des Autors James Graham Ballard, die 1971 erschien. Der Titel lautet übersetzt etwa: „Zinnoberroter Strand“, das Buch ist in Deutschland jedoch unter dem Titel „Die tausend Träume von Stellavista“ verlegt worden. Ort der Handlungen ist das fiktive Vermilion Sands in Südkalifornien, das jedoch frappierend Palm Springs ähnelt. Es handelt sich dabei um eine vollautomatisierte Ferienanlage in der Wüste. Die Personen sind meist desillusionierte Reiche oder Opportunisten aus deren Umfeld, die stark von diesen profitieren. Die Geschichten unterscheiden sich in der Wahl der utopisch dargestellten Medien. So gibt es in einer singende Statuen, in einer anderen ist es Architektur. Sie stellen sich aber immer als besonders dekadent, ähnlich dem Barock dar. Die einzelnen Titel stammen ausschließlich von Ballard und wurden zumindest teilweise schon zuvor veröffentlicht. (de)

- Vermilion Sands is a collection of science fiction short stories by British writer J. G. Ballard, first published in 1971. All the stories are set in an imaginary vacation resort called Vermilion Sands which suggests, among other places, Palm Springs in southern California. The characters are generally the wealthy and disaffected, or people who make a living off them, as well as parasites of various kinds. In the preface, Ballard himself wrote: "Vermilion Sands has more than its full share of dreams and illusions, fears and fantasies, but the frame for them is less confining. I like to think, too, that it celebrates the neglected virtues of the glossy, lurid and bizarre." A Times Literary Supplement review describes the collection's surrealist mood : "J.G. Ballard is … one of the most accomplished creators of evocative landscapes in modern fiction … he achieves this effect partly by painting his desert in the manner of Dali, a mixture of appalling clarity and the exotic."
