Description

“People ask me to predict the future, and I only want to prevent it,”—one of Ray Bradbury’s confessions, the American prose writer, poet, and playwright, a brilliant representative of the “Golden Age” of English-language science fiction who became a classic in his lifetime. “I can’t name a writer whose life would be better than mine. All my books are published; my books are in all school libraries; and when I speak to an audience, people applaud even before I begin to talk.” Few of today’s writers can say such a thing about their lives.
