You could hear the voices murmuring, small and muted, from the crowds that inhabited his body.
A peerless American storyteller, Ray Bradbury brings wonders alive. The Illustrated Man is classic Bradbury eighteen startling visions of humankind's destiny, unfolding across a canvas of decorated skin. In this phantasmagoric sideshow, living cities take their vengeance, technology awakens the most primal natural instincts, Martian invasions are foiled by the good life and the glad hand, and dreams are carried aloft in junkyard rockets. Provocative and powerful, Ray Bradbury's The Illustrated Man is a kaleidoscopic blending of magic, imagination, and truthas exhilarating as interplanetary travel, as maddening as a walk in a million-year rain, and as comforting as simple, familiar rituals on the last night of the world.

Ray Bradbury, the man I would build a shrine for
The Illustrated Man was the first book I read of him, and it was love at first sentence. A wonderful collection of sci-fi stories, ranging from macabre, crime, and every genre in between. All in the tattoos of one man. From the AI nursery killing the parents so the children will listen to its stories, to highways full of refugees of the nuclear war, and the possibility of going mad in the rain on Venus. And all of them with a philosophical edge and feels till you can't anymore. Many times I gave this book to friends, so a fair warning I have learned to give: Ray Bradbury writes with long, very descriptive sentences. Which makes me love him more and more. But it might not be for everyone.
