Ray Bradbury (1920–2012) was America's foremost writer of science fiction and fantasy. Among his most popular adult books were Fahrenheit 451, The Martian Chronicles, The Illustrated Man, Dandelion Wine, and Death Is a Lonely Business. In addition, he wrote several books for children, including Switch on the Night. In recognition of his stature in the world of literature, Bradbury was awarded the National Book Foundation's 2000 Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters and the National Medal of Arts in 2004.
"Ray Bradbury is one of the most original living American
authors....A curious mixture of poetry and colloquialism, [his
style] is so brisk and economical...so full of unexpected quirks
that it never becomes boring....Most of Ray's stories are
impossible-so far-but they are certainly convincing....His work
will last."
-- Gilbert Highet, from the Introduction
