The Vintage Bradbury
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
Just as the seller had promised, it arrived ontime and in great shape. I was very pleased. The book, of course is fantastic. Ray Bradbury is a phenomenal author. He never ceases to be able to take me on the journey right there with him.
How to make the bizarre believable
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Almost all stories contained in this volume have strangely weird premises. Almost all characters are truly odd or at least genuinely quirky. Almost all plots have surprising twists and strain the reader's imagination. And yet, each story is believable, is frighteningly real, and of a bizarre, almost grotesque beauty, combining playful fantasy with profound issues revolving around family and society, and I found myself rooting for the disillusioned outsider again and again. The tragedy is poignant and bittersweet - a real feast to read.
bradbury in my ear!

Ray loves words like a father loves his children. He caresses his images and then holds out his hand to you. What a trip he has in store. Come along!
