For more than sixty years, the imagination of Ray Bradbury has opened doors into remarkable places, ushering us across unexplored territories of the heart and mind while leading us inexorably toward a profound understanding of ourselves and the universe we inhabit. In this landmark volume, America's preeminent storyteller offers us one hundred treasures from a lifetime of words and ideas.

Here are representatives of the legendary author's finest works of short fiction, including many that have not been republished for decades, all forever fresh and vital, evocative and immensely entertaining.
I always loved Bradbury and his stories -- fantasies, science fiction, anything, though I think few people read him now. Stories like Picasso summer, or the classic of horror -- October game (I do not think any of the so called recent horror writer can come even close) show his power. In his stories imagination and reality merge; simple, almost marginal characters turn into protagonists and they weave networks of dream. Wonderful.
