Each week at his
Listen to the Echoes blog,
Sam Weller, who is not only
Ray Bradbury's biographer, but teaches a university course entirely devoted to the writer, will offer his choice of favourite Bradbury short stories. As he writes:
These stories will embody all the trademarks of vintage Bradbury: the lyrical language; the fantastic, original, and memorable ideas; and endings that sometimes surprise, sometimes sadden, always instruct and entertain. This list will be entirely subjective. These are my favorites. They will reflect a wide range, from weird tales to social science fiction to quiet and contemplative tales of contemporary literature. These tales are pure and classic Bradbury—our modern mythologist.
A great introduction to this prolific writer's work. I'm certainly following along - what's one story a week?
