"In this volume, America's preeminent storyteller offers us one hundred treasures from a lifetime of words and ideas - tales that amaze, enthrall, and horrify; breathtaking journeys backward and forward in time; classic stories with the undiminished power to tantalize, mystify, elate, and move the reader to tears." The one hundred stories in this volume were chosen by Bradbury himself, and span a career that blossomed in the pulp magazines of the early 1940s and continues to flourish in the new millennium. 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. This is Bradbury at his very best - golden visions of tomorrow, poetic memories of yesterday, dark nightmares and glorious dreams - a grand celebration of humankind, God's intricate yet poignantly fallible machineries of joy.
