Description
“Every morning I jump out of bed and step on a mine. This mine is me,” writes Ray Bradbury—and that, perhaps, is the quintessence of the book. Great Bradbury, whose books became classics during the author’s lifetime, tries to understand himself and the nature of creative writing. How does a plot take shape? How does an idea appear? And at what moment does a person realize that writing books is his purpose? But these are by no means boring and pompous notes from a master.
Bradbury has a wonderful sense of humor. He looks at the world not only through the eyes of an all-knowing, experienced sage, but also through the eyes of an ironic person. For example, one of the book’s chapters is called “How to Hold and Feed the Muse.” By the way, the answer to that question is in the book—and it’s simple: to keep the Muse, you must live with enthusiasm and love life; listen to it and to yourself.
