Ray Bradbury

By Harold Bloom

Book Overview

The author of Fahrenheit 451 and The Martian Chronicles is among the most highly respected science fiction and fantasy writers today. His works explore the nature, implication, and limits of the human, in both terrestrial and extraterrestrial realms. Bradbury's often dystopian visions were a product of the times, years marked by the cold war and nuclear proliferation. Readers will find useful critical commentary on Bradbury's work in this new edition in the Bloom's Modern Critical Views series. Also featured are an introductory essay by master scholar Harold Bloom, an index for quick reference, a bibliography, and a chronology of Bradbury's life.
