Mucho más que un escritor de ciencia-ficción, este volumen viene a situar a Ray Bradbury (1920-2012) como el escritor clásico cuya narrativa breve que fijó durante décadas gran parte de nuestro imaginario fantástico ha trascendido con más rotundidad hasta el siglo XIX. Desde sus cuentos más conocidos (los incluidos en Crónicas marcianas o El hombre ilustrado) a relatos menos conocidos o versiones no recopiladas, esta edición, que cuenta con nueva traducción de Ce Santiago y prologada por Laura Fernández, nos muestra de forma cronológica la evolución vital y literaria de un autor.

Montag fa il pompiere in un mondo in cui ai pompieri non è richiesto di spegnere gli incendi, ma di accenderli: armati di lanciafiamme, fanno irruzione nelle case dei sovversivi che conservano libri e li bruciano.

Finché, dall'incontro con una ragazza sconosciuta, inizia per lui la scoperta di un sentimento e di una vita diversa, un mondo di luce e non offuscato dalle tenebre della imperante società tecnologica.
