Description

In 1996, when the (year of the collection’s publication) great master turned 76, he captivated millions of readers around the world, and each of his books proves that the Muse doesn’t care about the age of the person she pledged her loyalty to.

The story collection “In an Instant” brilliantly showcases the full creative range of the wizard Bradbury: from warm humaneness and sentimentality in the best sense of the word to tragicomedies thick with black humor.
